Nestled at the base of the Martinez hills, this picturesque neighborhood is full of shade trees, palms, rose bushes, and sweet historic bungalows. There is a lazy breeze, picket fences, and porch swings—you wonder why you haven’t looked here before. And this stately home, with its charming front and side gardens, fits right in. While the kitchen and baths have been completely renovated for modern ease, the vintage vibe remains throughout. High ceilings, tall windows, gorgeous wood floors and mouldings…the details from 1904 don’t disappoint. And the light: sun beams in and floods the rooms to create an airy, sophisticated feel. But the highlight is the new eat-in kitchen with its soft green cabinetry, gas range, fun retro tile flooring, new countertops, and stainless steel appliances. Across the hall, the primary bedroom with oversized closet and redone en-suite bath also dazzles, and looks out to the trees. Finally, a bonus room off the entry could be a perfect home office, third bedroom, or craft room, with a peaceful view of the front garden.
