Description

Located in the foothills south of York Boulevard, this sunny honey occupies that rare sweet spot: conveniently close to a multitude of Highland Parks renowned eateries and shops (Cafe de Leche, Dotter, Collage coffee, Shorthand, Joy, Belles Bagels, El Huarache Azteca, etc.), yet still far enough away from the action to be a peaceful hideaway. Built in 1924, the three-bedroom cottages modern upgrades include two designer baths, an open kitchen with stainless appliances, new roof (2017), new electrical...Located in the foothills south of York Boulevard, this sunny honey occupies that rare sweet spot: conveniently close to a multitude of Highland Parks renowned eateries and shops (Cafe de Leche, Dotter, Collage coffee, Shorthand, Joy, Belles Bagels, El Huarache Azteca, etc.), yet still far enough away from the action to be a peaceful hideaway. Built in 1924, the three-bedroom cottages modern upgrades include two designer baths, an open kitchen with stainless appliances, new roof (2017), new electrical system (2016), tankless water heater, and central HVAC. Along with a basement/garage space primed for conversion to a home office, screening room, or gym, the property features a detached guest studio with kitchenette and half-bath. Making this haven more heavenly is its idyllic backyard, offering picture-postcard views, a pergola-shaded lounge area, and a veritable mini-orchard. Dare to eat a peach (or fig, or pomegranate, or strawberry, kumquat, grape, or orange) from one of the abundant fruit trees or garden beds while you sway in a hammock and soak up the surrounding cinematic views! Sheltering in place has never been more appealing. Buyers are advised to do their own due diligence in regards to ALL permits and square footage.
