Major system upgrades...Thoughtfully renovated 1916 Green Lake bungalow located just blocks from the lake, park, trails and the charm of Tangletown. The main level offers spacious living and dining rooms, wood burning fireplace, two large bedrooms, a front office or sitting area filled with natural light, a three quarter bath, and a newly renovated kitchen reimagined with a countertop bar and passthrough. The front office feels quietly tucked away behind french doors, a retreat for work or reading. Major system upgrades include mechanical, updated windows, electrical, and plumbing updates, new sewer line to the street, composition roof, interior and exterior paint, plus foundation and steel structural improvements that increased lower level head height. A full improvement list is available in attached documents. The lower level has been transformed into a recording studio and sound room. Fully decoupled floors, insulated and isolated electrical, dedicated HVAC, balanced and analog wiring systems, and extensive sound engineering tested to 115db with no outside sound transmission. This front room could also easily function as a guest space using the existing built-in Murphy bed with ample built-in storage and a modernized three quarter bath with walk-in shower. The larger room would make an exceptional home theatre or family room. Fresh sod and plantings enhance both front and back yards. The fenced backyard includes a patio, deck off of the kitchen, storage shed. Two plus car off-street parking.
