Steeped in rich history as one of the first homes built in the desirable Woodacre flats, this charming 1930 home blends vintage character with modern flexibility and unrealized potential. Set on a sunny, flat quarter-acre lot, the 3-bed, 2-bath residence offers 2,626 square feet of versatile living. The main level features a welcoming living room, formal dining room, kitchen, full bath, and dedicated office. Upstairs you'll find three bedrooms and a second full bath. Mini-splits in four rooms throughout the house provide year-round heating and cooling comfort. A detached two-car garage includes a finished room below (great for a gym!) and a large, finished upstairs (ideal for guests, a playroom, additional office space, and more). Professionally landscaped gardens with irrigation support vibrant vegetables and flowers, anchored by a vine-covered pergola perfect for summer dining. On Railroad Ave you're truly in the heart of Woodacre with front-row seats to the 4th of July parade, epic Halloween festivities, and close proximity to the Woodacre Improvement Club, deli, and countless open space trails. A timeless Valley gem is ready for its next chapter.
