Overview

RARE FIND! Entertainers dream! Character and old world charm fill the living spaces of this 1,323 sq ft one story cottage with plenty of room to grow! Step inside and you are greeted with a cozy, inviting enclosed front porch that allows you to have tranquility and privacy if you choose. As you step through your "second" front door to the living room, you will be mesmerized by high ceilings and natural light. The original fireplace greets you and invites you through the arched entrance to the dining room/eating nook flooded with natural sunlight. The kitchen has been tastefully updated to still maintain that old world feel but with a modern touch. French double doors lead from your back bedroom/office space and open out onto the veranda to your outdoor entertaining area. Don't let this 3 bedroom/1 bathroom fool you, if you have a growing family there is potential to expand upward as there is an unusually large attic space that has the possibility of being turned into another bedroom/loft. Still need more room? There is an additional 400 sq ft air conditioned detached structure with electric that can be converted to office space, guest quarters, workshop, garage or even an ADU (accessory dwelling unit) with permitting by the city. One of the prized features of this eclectic bungalow is its original hard wood floors throughout most of the home. Brand new roof, new AC (2022), new hot water heater (2023). Get ready to kick back and relax in the extraordinary backyard oasis with outdoor movie theater, fire pit and family recreational area. Amazingly large back and side porches for hosting a big family and/or lots of friends.
