About This Home
Nestled in a sought after location where the gentle chimes of the historic mission bell create a soundtrack for daily life, this beautifully reimagined California Cottage home tells a story of thoughtful renovation and endless possibility. Just steps from Alice Keck Park and the enchanting mission rose garden, with Arlington and Reynauds nearby, this property captures the essence of California indoor-outdoor living.
The heart of the home showcases a completely renovated kitchen and bathroom that perfectly marries mid-century modern design with coastal bungalow charm. Custom barn doors add both character and functionality, offering the flexibility to transform the dining space for intimate dinners or larger gatherings. Fresh front entry tiles and a thoughtfully designed drought resistant cactus garden with an efficient sprinkler system create an inviting first impression that speaks to both style and sustainability.
The true magic unfolds on the expansive deck, where morning coffee becomes a ritual against a backdrop of vibrant bougainvillea. This outdoor sanctuary serves as the perfect stage for entertaining friends or finding quiet moments of relaxation while listening to the distant mission bell. The space flows seamlessly from indoor comfort to outdoor paradise, embodying the California dream.
Adventure beckons through a charming backyard path that leads to a walk-in basement, presenting an incredible potential for an ADU conversion that could serve as a guest retreat, rental income, or creative studio space. Above, a brand new stylish attic access opens up another world of possibilities, ready for Pinterest-worthy transformations that could add both value and living space.
