Property Description

Spectacular 1927 Spanish Colonial Revival located in the classic Rose Park Historical District. The home consists of 2 spacious bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms with an additional office space. The house exhibits many original features from the Spanish Colonial movement, including a beautiful irregularly laid Mission tile roof, a large focal window, terra cotta medallions, stained glass windows, and a dramatic barrel entry with a vertically jointed wood door with original hardware. Upon entering the home you are greeted by a generous living room with a voluminous coved ceiling, a decorative faux fireplace with a solid oak mantle, original wall and ceiling lighting, superb original mouldings and doors, and white oak hardwood flooring that flows throughout the home. Off the living room is a cozy office space, with original built-ins, and the kitchen which features 2 sinks, a glazed tile floor, multiple windows, a dining area, and access to the thoughtfully landscaped yard. There is a 1 car garage off of 8th Street with additional parking on the driveway and a second 1 car garage that can be accessed off the alley way. Between the two garages is a useful dedicated laundry room with space for storage or a potting bench. The home has been lovingly cared for over the years with many of the original wood sash windows restored, the roof replaced while maintaining the original tile, and more.
