Upgrades abound at this dreamy California Craftsman. When you step through your private entry gate, classic elements like columns and a large front porch greet you. Once inside, you'll revel in the contemporary yet comforting vibe. The living room flows effortlessly to the dining area and kitchen for easy entertaining. Thoughtful and refreshing design elements include a chunky wood mantel, elevated shelving, wallpaper and a whimsical hand-painted hallway. Motorized window shades provide convenient room lightening or darkening, and the 100" drop-down remote screen helps transform your living room into a screening room. The owner's significant practical upgrades in the past 5 years include seismic retrofitting, electrical panel, water heater, whole-house water filtration system, roof replacement and more. The backyard has been transformed into a chic yet relaxing spot to gather with family and friends, and includes custom block seating and patio tile work, a pergola and cement fire pit with lava rocks. A wonderful place to make a happy home!
