The house is classic and charming, a light and bright custom cottage-style home retaining many features of it's day! Original touches remain through-out the house, including woodwork, picture moldings, lath and plaster walls, even the old telephone alcove and mail slot by the front door! The living room has a large divided-lights window wall and a decorative fireplace. Refinished original hardwood floors add charm and warmth in the main living spaces and two bedrooms. The Master bdrm. has a bay window and walk-in-closet, while the bath has it's deep and long old cast-iron tub (wonderfully comfortable to soak in!) and a hard-fired custom tiled sink countertop. An old glass chandelier with cut crystal lights the formal dining area--which has a serving counter opening to a covered brick patio in the back yard. The modernized kitchen has a breakfast room with a view. Multiple cupboards and shelving provide ample storage in the hall, bathroom, and kitchen. There's an indoor laundry with floor to ceiling pantry cupboards and a convenient outside entry. A pull-down ladder accesses the plywood sheathed attic, allowing light-weight storage for out-of-season items. An attached workshop with a separate entry extends into the back yard. A whole-house fan exchanges the air quickly after warm summer days, replacing it with cool evening air in minutes. The house was built near the front of a large and extra deep lot, so there's plenty of protected space in the back for children and pets to play safely. It's a perfect yard for the gentleman gardener!--sunny spaces with raised beds, sidewalks meandering through the back garden areas, storage sheds for equipment, several brick patios. Mature English walnut trees provide shade, and there are fruit bearing trees as well--lemon, Fuyu persimmon, peach, loquat, as well as multiple perennials. Redwood fences border the sides of that deep back yard.
