Property Description

Timeless Beauty: Craftsman Home, Idyllic Street This 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom residence retains the built-in charm of an early 20th century Craftsman, featuring original wood floors, large rooms, a big kitchen, and a large front porch. Some of the beautiful details of this home are the well-designed built-ins, such as the buffet in the dining room, a bookcase in the living room, and pocket doors between the two main areas. Other well-loved features include the stained glass windows above the built-in bookshelves and the leaded glass window in the foyer, along with the extra-wide front door with a sliver of a moon window embedded within. Along with the charm of this home are the modern conveniences of solar panels, dual pane windows, upgraded electricity and plumbing. The office and large family room/bedroom were added in the 1960s. Located on a tree-lined street, the property offers a private retreat with fruit trees, raised garden beds, and a sweet sitting area in the backyard. This ideal location is close to the amenities of Temescal shopping and both Ashby and MacArthur BART stations.
