Just moments from the walking paths, wildlife, and year-round beauty of Virginia Lake, this charming 1946 brick cottage invites you to slow down and savor each day. Morning coffee waits beneath the covered concrete patio. Fresh apples, pears, and plums are ready from your own backyard. Evenings end beside the warmth of the fireplace while hardwood floors add timeless character throughout the home. This 2-bedroom, 1-bath residence offers 898 square feet of living space on an approximately 8,700-square-foot lot, blending vintage charm. The backyard feels like a private sanctuary. Towering conifers, a majestic giant sequoia, and mature oak tree create a peaceful canopy overhead, while a full privacy fence surrounds the space. A pollinator garden welcomes butterflies and hummingbirds in the front yard, and extensive drip irrigation, along with automatic sprinklers on a timer, keeps the landscape thriving with ease. A charming chicken coop completes the garden-to-table lifestyle, offering a rare opportunity to enjoy fresh eggs alongside homegrown fruit. A separate approximately 200-square-foot studio opens the door to endless possibilities—an inspiring art studio, quiet home office, yoga retreat, or creative escape. The detached garage and unfinished basement provide valuable storage, workshop space, or future potential to make the property your own. Major improvements include a roof replaced around 2016 and a sewer line professionally relined just a few years ago, offering added peace of mind. All appliances convey, making your move even easier. Walk to Virginia Lake for an evening stroll, enjoy one of Reno's most beloved neighborhoods, then return home to a place that feels tucked away from it all. A rare blend of character, privacy, mature landscaping, and everyday simplicity awaits at 236 Bonnie Briar.
