Step into history with this beautifully preserved 1885 home, full of character and timeless craftsmanship. From the moment you walk in, the original curved wood staircase makes a striking statement, paired with solid wood doors, classic hardware, and hardwood floors that tell the story of another era. The dining room features a fireplace framed with distinctive period tile, adding charm and warmth to the space. Upstairs, you’ll find three spacious bedrooms, an office, and an updated bathroom with a tiled walk-in shower. A second updated bathroom on the main level adds convenience without sacrificing style. Outside, the home’s brick masonry exterior stands proudly on a corner lot in a highly desired neighborhood. The lush yard is fully fenced with low-maintenance vinyl fencing, complete with a sprinkler system, grass, mature trees, and well-maintained landscaping. The detached garage—once a horse carriage house—includes a upstairs loft, perfect for storage, a workshop, or creative space. This home is more than just a place to live; it’s a piece of Monte Vista’s history, beautifully blending late 1800s craftsmanship with unmatched character and timeless charm.
