About This Home

As of May 2023

This mid-century redwood cabin is perfect for the person with an eye for the artistic. From the vaulted ceilings and large windows overlooking the lovely terraced backyard and the large fireplace this home will bring out the artist in you. It is privately situated on a hillside lot in Taft Heights with more expensive homes all around. Each room has its own individually controlled heating unit but there is also a working floor furnace. The kitchen has been remodeled with newer cabinets, flooring, a farm sink and granite counters. The bath has also been remodeled and includes a shower skylight. The mounted big screens will stay. This is truly a home you won't want to miss.
