Property Description

Your own private oasis awaits you at this Mid-Century Ranch Home on nearly a quarter acre lot. First time on market in 32 years, this charmer offers you an opportunity to create your dream space in a fantastic location on one of the most coveted streets in Westport Heights. Situated at the top of a hillside cul-de-sac lined with Magnolia trees, the oversized, lush backyard offers city light and mountain views. Plenty of parking in the circular driveway, leading to the lovely front courtyard perfect for sipping coffee in the morning sun. Inside you will find a large bright foyer, inviting you into the living area with floor to ceiling glass windows and an enclosed patio, blurring the lines between indoor and outdoor space. The backyard boasts a large flat pad surrounded by mature tropical foliage to create a tranquil refuge with a wooden deck perfect for birdwatching. Updated in 2005, the house footprint was expanded to add a large office or 3rd bedroom with separate entrance, a second full bathroom and a roomy pantry/laundry room. The mid-century appeal was preserved with new "old stock" original tile in bathrooms and kitchen, vintage Bakelite handles on the cabinets, and an art deco tile design in the guest bathroom. Details include hardwood flooring throughout, an original stone fireplace, floor to ceiling bookshelves in the kitchen nook, a custom butcher block counter with built in spice drawers all adding to the function of this beautiful, unique home.
