About This Home
Timeless elegance awaits on one of Historic Baker’s most picturesque, tree-lined blocks. Thoughtfully and professionally renovated, this home exudes character, craftsmanship, and meticulous care in every detail. From the inviting front porch and beautifully landscaped yard to the seamless blend of modern updates and period charm, this residence offers the best of both worlds. Inside, gleaming hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, large picture windows, and a cozy gas fireplace set a warm and welcoming tone. The open-concept living and dining areas flow effortlessly into a spectacular chef’s kitchen—the true heart of the home. Designed to impress, it features imported Moroccan tile, a custom teak hood sourced from India, quartz countertops, a six-burner Monogram gas range, a deep apron sink, additional prep sink with water filtration and InstaHot, soft-close shaker cabinetry, designer backsplash, beverage fridge, and clever pull-out pantry storage. A peninsula with seating for three completes this perfect culinary space. The main level also includes a stylish full bathroom, a versatile guest bedroom ideal for a home office or den, and a spacious laundry room with abundant storage. Upstairs you’ll find two generous bedrooms, including a serene primary suite with tall ceilings, a rare cedar-lined walk-in closet, and plenty of space for your king size bed. The private backyard provides a tranquil escape—perfect for relaxing and entertaining al fresco. The two-car garage has been thoughtfully reimagined into a one-car garage with additional storage and a fully finished, climate-controlled office or flex space—ideal for remote work, fitness, music room, or any creative pursuits. Unbeatable location just half a block from South Broadway, with its eclectic mix of restaurants, shops, and nightlife—all right at your doorstep.
