This charming Cape Cod cottage is perfect for a new family or an emptied nest. Built in 1931, it's a cozy blend of history, modernity, and character. Featuring original hard wood floors, it also sports a historic fireplace, a custom-designed kitchen, complete with a vintage 1954 range and high-end ceiling fans throughout. Fruit trees abound in water-wise front and tiered, private back yard, which overlooks a canyon. Bonus room provides an office, laundry and seller will even include 4 egg laying chickens. Comfortably situated on a canyon-lot in a cul-de-sac, this charming, 1931 Cape Cod home is warm, cozy, and inviting. Originally built as part of the California Pacific International Exposition of 1935-36, which brought thousands of new residents to San Diego, and greatly expanded Balboa Park, the home feels historical rather than old. Take a look at the original floors, the vintage fireplace, and the exquisite 1954 O'Keefe & Merritt range, the centerpiece of a custom kitchen that features alderwood cabinets with their own lights, granite counters, and recessed LED. Controllable ceiling fans are installed throughout, complete with upgraded electrics and an expandable circuit box. Both the front and back yards feature fruit trees, including orange, lemon, pineapple guava, passionfruit, plum and apple, as well as water-wise plants and an irrigation system set to a timer. The tiered backyard is intensely private, and waiting for a green thumb ready to take charge. A washer-dryer is found in the adorable bonus room, and there's an epic attic, complete with retractable ladder, running over the entire house, for all your storage needs. Wonderfully central location within easy walking distance of Kensington and its abundance of shops, restaurants, and the historic Ken Cinema, this comfy cottage, complete with its chicken coop and its four residents, is the perfect place to build a new nest.
