Description
What an adorable and solidly built 1940 home that’s bursting with character and craftsmanship! Featuring original solid oak floors and detailed millwork primarily throughout (impressive 6-1/8” baseboards in many rooms, along with 4” door case moldings and solid wood doors), this home offers timeless charm in all the right places. Step into a welcoming formal dining room adorned with chair molding and a chandelier, perfect for hosting a select few of your closest friends. The cozy living room features a wood-burning fireplace with an ornate mantel highlighted by elegant dental molding. A quaint reading room or office offers crown molding, custom bookshelves, wainscoting, and beautiful 5-1/8” baseboards. The kitchen is outfitted with solid wood cabinets, further reflecting this home’s quality construction. A recently renovated bathroom (approx. 3 years ago) adds modern comfort to this classic gem. Outside, enjoy a spacious deck, established fig and pomegranate trees, and host of other flora! Worried about adequate storage space, don’t! This property boasts a large floored attic, plus a shed in the back yard. Major systems have been updated, including: a new HVAC condenser unit and ductwork in 2019; water heater in 2018; and roof replacement in 2013 or 2014. Whether you’re a first-time buyer looking for a home with character or an investor seeking opportunity, this property is a rare find. Being sold as-is.
