Hugged by a landscaped corner lot, this peerless Craftsman home glows with a harmonious balance of character, elegance, and modern living -- the best of all worlds in a top-tier architectural treasure. The impressive, lodge-like front porch gives way to a world of standout Craftsman details: A clinker brick fireplace with custom copper hood, coffered ceilings, leaded-glass built-ins, rich woodwork, an enchanting window bench, and glass pocket doors, all accentuated by curated lighting that perfectly complements the Craftsman origins. Custom wood-framed window screens and a magnificent row of antique gold-leaf Byobu panels lining the hallway add special touches you won’t find anywhere else. Three bedrooms each have their own adjoining bathrooms for ultimate privacy and convenience. The renovated kitchen is a master class in space planning, incorporating an eating nook and discreet laundry area. Upstairs, a spacious family room provides flexible space for work, play, or a hang-out/TV lounge; adjacent bedroom and full bath make a suite retreat. Finished garage for office, workshop, gym or playroom, with built-in desks, shelving & storage. City-approved ADU plans included! Glorious outdoor living with serene gardens and hardscape. Prime East-End street near top schools & amenities.
