About This Home
As of May 2026Stately Upper East 1915 Craftsman brimming with potential and ready for its next chapter. This classic fixer offers endless possibilities in a highly desirable neighborhood, just minutes from downtown, parks, schools, restaurants, and beaches. Set well back from the street, the home is framed by a rare Australian Tea Tree and a striking Arts & Crafts-style wood fence, creating a private, verdant garden setting. The quiet Islay block--featuring street parking on only one side--enhances the sense of tranquility. The property invites you to create your own serene oasis, with space for a patio beneath mature oaks alongside a charming city creeklet. Inside, the spacious living room with a formal fireplace offers warmth and comfort, while the large, light-filled dining room overlooks the (SUPP) lush yard. The home includes two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a sunroom, laundry room, and three walk-in closets. A single-car garage with additional storage provides further potential.
Lovingly held by the same owner for decades, this special property is ready for a new steward to reimagine and restore its timeless character.
