Property Description
Affectionately referred to as the "Garden Cottage" this is one of the most adorable homes on the El Toyonal Hill. Right over the hill from Tilden Park this expanded cottage is very private and located next to a seasonal creek that triples the charm of the home. You can sit on the deck and listen to the creek running and during the rain storms watch the increased flow. The home features a wonderful stone fireplace that is the centerpiece of the Redwood panelled living room. The primary bedroom has an attached bathroom and small walk in closet and opens to the deck adjacent to the creek. The rooms are wonderfully scenic with large windows framing the natural green space surrounding the home. This property is one of the few homes that adjoin currently vacant open space. So private and peaceful! Shown only by appointment.

ZIP averages use publicly displayable closed sales from our licensed MLS feed, matched to the same ZIP and exact property type. Months with fewer than 3 sales are omitted; the current month is incomplete. Lines connect available monthly observations across gaps and do not represent measured prices in missing months. These averages are not adjusted for size, condition, or location within the ZIP, and are not an appraisal. Feed coverage may not include every sale. All available shows the available home and ZIP history, with mortgage rates over the same dates.
Mortgage benchmark: Freddie Mac Primary Mortgage Market Survey®. © Freddie Mac. Weekly national 30-year fixed rates, not APRs or a loan quote. Actual terms vary. Methodology changed in November 2022. The chart does not establish that interest-rate changes caused a home’s price changes.
Lines connect recorded asking and sale prices. They are visual guides, not estimates of the home’s value between those dates.
