Description

Reflecting the local landscape with its perfect color palate, this 1910 Craftsman is a Bungalow Heaven dream. From the majestic Deodar Cedar tree framing the broad covered front porch to the sprawling backyard with room to garden and play, this home offers the dream of Southern California relaxed living. Replete with original architectural details including Elephantine base columns, solid oak front door with cast brass hardware, wood shingle siding and entry colonnade with built-in storage, this 3 bedroom, 1 1/2 bath home embodies the lifestyle that inspired the Arts & Crafts movement. Living and dining rooms boast beamed ceilings, built-ins with leaded glass doors and a fireplace. Cottage-style casement windows bathe the home in natural light, and beg to be opened in the two bedrooms facing the garden. The full bath has been tastefully updated, with an additional half-bath in the laundry room, featuring newer LG washer and dryer (Nov. 2021). Kitchen offers Marmoleum flooring, stainless steel appliances and a double sink. Outdoors, find a fabulous deep backyard which enjoys equal parts sunlight to cultivate a vegetable garden, and shade bestowed by the artfully pruned, mature Chinese Elm tree. A recently upgraded two-car garage features a modern yet stylistically appropriate Liftmaster garage door remotely controlled by the MyQ app. Special plantings include historic Iris purchased from the Huntington Gardens, as well as prolific fruit trees (persimmon, fig, tangelo and apricot) and a rose-scented geranium. Inside and out, this property is one to cherish.
