Everyone who walks through the handsome front door of this 1927 bungalow says something like: "what a charming home!" It really has a wonderful combination of features: vintage details blend with tasteful upgrades; a spacious back garden are highlighted by a deck and detached garage. The floor plan of this home capitalizes on its corner location with an inviting central entry. An arched opening leads into the living room, with original wood cabinets surrounding the fireplace; light streams in from windows on three sides. Glass French doors open to the formal dining room. The original built-in provides both architectural interest and a fine place to store prized possessions. Two bedrooms and a full bath, all with dual pane windows, are accessed from a central hallway. The upgraded kitchen with newer counters and stove offers a casual eat-in space, laundry area, and access to a handy half bathroom. Many corner properties have little garden space, but this home is the exception. A small deck offers the perfect spot for sitting with coffee (or your favorite adult beverage!) and enjoying your fully-fenced back garden planted with drought-friendly wild flowers, an established lemon tree, and classic roses. The detached garage might fit a small car, but it certainly provides great storage...or space for a fun conversion!
