Property Description

MULTIPLE OFFERS. HIGHEST AND BEST DEADLINE MONDAY 7/14/25 8PM EDT. This 1912 California Craftsman home was thoughtfully and extensively renovated in 2009, nearly doubling its living space while preserving its rich architectural heritage. Period details shine throughout: large expansive front porch with tapered columns, heart pine floors, diamond-paned windows, pocket doors, four decorative only fireplaces and handcrafted built-ins including window seats, shelving, and a mudroom. The redesigned back entry opens to a spacious screened porch-now a peaceful retreat and the heart of daily living. Inside, the bright family room features a wall of Arts & Crafts windows and French doors leading to the covered porch. The one-level layout includes three generous bedrooms-primary with ensuite bath and ELFA closet-plus a dedicated office, full laundry room, and plenty of storage. A rare and timeless Craftsman gem.
