This meticulously updated two-bedroom, one-bathroom bungalow was constructed in 1924 with durable redwood. The residence thoughtfully integrates classic architectural elements with contemporary updates for comfortable living. Interior Features: The home has been freshly painted throughout, providing a clean and inviting atmosphere. The kitchen features a modern remodel, including stainless steel appliances, refrigerator, stove, dishwasher, and a brand new beverage refrigerator, all of which are included. The bathroom was updated with sleek finishes and LED lighting. New flooring was installed last year. The primary bedroom offers a built-in closet organizer, while the secondary bedroom includes a closet organizer and sliding doors leading to the backyard patio and spa; the spa is included with the property. Garage & Workshop: The detached, two-car garage is constructed from redwood. There is also a separate shed/workshop accessible from both the front and rear of the property, independent from the garage. Both the garage and workshop benefit from upgraded 220V electrical systems with 60 Amp service. Outdoor Highlights: The front yard is landscaped with mature cherry and apricot trees as well as vibrant potted plants. Backyard alley access featuring a gate provides potential for future development, including an ADU (zoned R17000). The rear porch/patio area is constructed of wood and includes a spa. Custom front fencing and a full property enclosure contribute to privacy and security. Additional Upgrades: The home features all-new plumbing fixtures, a rewired electrical system, and a tankless water heater with a zero-clearance unit. This move-in-ready residence combines historic charm with modern conveniences and presents exciting opportunities for future enhancements.
