About This Home

As of August 2016

A Historic California Heights cottage you don’t want to miss. The 1940s eaves and intricate wood porch entry and flowering shrubs give it curb appeal plus. The front door opens into a spacious light-filled living room that has a coved ceiling, a picture window, a fireplace booked by attractive scones, and gorgeous hardwood floors. A unique and visually pleasing peaked arch leading into dining area has large front facing windows, an interesting barrel ceiling, formal raised-panel wainscoting, and the perfect chandelier. The wall and ceiling paint colors are to die for! The remodeled kitchen has plenty of storage, light-toned upgraded cabinets contrasted with a dark solid surface counter top, and a bay window breakfast nook for lingering with a cup of coffee. Two nice sized bedrooms have large closets and side-by-side corner windows. Open the back kitchen door to get to one of the best features of the property: an expansive beautifully landscape back yard with a trellised brick patio. Take the path to the well-maintained detached 2-car garage where you will find plenty of storage. This is house you would be proud to call home.
