Eloquently manicured, drought- tolerant landscaping greets you as you enter this charming 3-bedroom home. Natural light, built-in shelving, and hardwood floors add warmth and sophistication while the newly renovated kitchen and bathrooms offer high end finishes and a modern touch. The light-filled living room, featuring a fireplace and reading nook, opens to a spacious dining room, 2 bedrooms, and a renovated bathroom with classic marble floors. Up a flight of stairs is a large room with beautiful curved ceilings. The kitchen opens to a professionally-designed and curated cacti and succulent garden oasis, perfect for outdoor dining and entertaining while providing privacy and tranquility. The gate separating the driveway to the yard was created by renowned sculptor Mark Bulwinkle. A detached studio provides endless possibilities - use it as an office, art studio, or a retreat for guests. The heat pump, A/C, tankless water heater, newer roof, and seismically retrofitted foundation make this home efficient. This prime location means easy access to neighborhood favorites: Monterey Market, Gioia Pizza, Coffee Conscious, Hedlands Biergarten, Bart, Cedar-Rose Park, and more!
