    What's special

    Built in 1914, this classic Craftsman presents an exceptional opportunity for investors, renovators, or buyers with a vision to restore a true architectural gem to its original glory. Situated on a picturesque, wide, tree-lined one-way street just blocks from the beach, this 112-year-old home is rich with timeless character and offers the perfect canvas for a stunning transformation. Many of the home's original details remain, including hardwood floors, crown molding, custom built-ins, generously sized rooms, soaring ceilings, and abundant windows that fill the interior with natural light. While the property could benefit from some TLC, it already features valuable updates such as central forced-air heating and air conditioning, an updated kitchen with rich dark cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a remodeled upstairs bathroom with dual showerheads. The spacious floor plan includes an charming living room, formal dining room, family/great room, remodeled kitchen, and a convenient ¾ bath on the main level. A grand sweeping staircase leads to three oversized bedrooms with ample closets and the updated full bath. Outside, the private fenced backyard offers plenty of space for entertaining or future enhancements. A detached single-car garage and extended driveway provide ample off-street parking. Whether you're looking to restore a historic Craftsman to its magnificent beauty or create lasting value in a highly sought-after beach-close neighborhood, this is a rare opportunity to bring new life to a home with incredible character, charm, and potential.
