135 18th St, Paso Robles, CA 93446

Property Description

If you love a cozy home, this cottage is worth a look. A part of history, the “Paso House,” was the first home built on 18th Street over 100 years ago. A charming home with 1,305 SqFt of living space, high ceilings, 3 bedrooms & 2 bathrooms. A private barn is set back on the approximately 5,775 SqFt lot which was fashioned with 1800’s Amish barn wood. Imagine your ceramics shop, yoga retreat, small business, workshop or boutique garage with generous attic storage. When you arrive, you’re home. In the living room a realistic gas fireplace with Adelaida stone warms the space and cuts the chill from fall through spring. A vintage 1948 O’Keefe & Merritt stove adorns the 1940s kitchen with an unusual amount of cabinet space, pretty glass china cabinet and dining nook. See the “window of truth” between the kitchen and living spaces which pays homage to simpler times. Indoor laundry in the original “back porch” has an authentic folding wall ironing board. All windows feature beautiful “bleeding” glass. A tankless water heater along with central heating & air were recently added for practicality. Enjoy a glass of Paso Robles wine and wave to neighbors from your serene front porch. Stroll to dinner three blocks east to the Paso Market Walk where you can also grab a fresh bouquet, some 5 year Gouda or rent electric bikes. 18th Street is literally the center of the sought out historic west side residences and walking streets. Purple and pink lilacs welcome spring; fruit trees produce figs and kumquats. Savor the intensity of the colorful backyard sunsets where there is plenty of room for play, a garden and entertaining your family & friends. This gem is the perfect forever home if you are looking to escape city life and enjoy the tranquility and magic of Paso. Paso House is truly a rare and special place. Not generically remodeled but thoughtfully restored… Welcome home!
