This mid-century 3-Bedroom home on a corner lot is on the market for the first in over 60 years. Located just around the corner from Merwin Elementary School, this 3-bedroom home offers a blend of original charm and a blank canvas for updating. Hardwood floors flow throughout the home, with ceiling fans in every bedroom to keep things comfortable. The bright living room welcomes you with abundant natural light and a ceiling fan, while the expansive galley kitchen boasts ample cabinetry, a ceiling fan, and vintage gold-and-maroon ceramic tile counters that add a touch of retro character. A cozy dining area attached to the kitchen features built-in cabinets, a floor-to-ceiling bay window and a hutch for extra storage. Off the kitchen, you’ll find a service porch with a utility sink, newer water heater, and window A/C, plus an enclosed rear porch with parquet floors, laundry hookups, and sliding door access to the backyard. The full bathroom showcases original vintage gray-and-pink ceramic tile with a tub/shower combo and vinyl flooring. Outside, enjoy a spacious patio, grassy play area, and a small detached structure—ideal for storage or a potential ADU with a little imagination and creativity. The two-car detached garage offers plentiful storage cabinetry. Additional features include gravity heat and a window A/C unit at the front entry. Set in a quiet cul-de-sac location near daycare, churches, and local restaurants, this home offers convenience, character, and opportunity all in one package.
