A Tangletown Masterpiece. Just imagine arriving home to a residence that stands as a testament to the elegance of the 1920s. Nestled in the shadow of the historic Washburn Water Tower, 5039 Harriet Avenue invites those who value character to become its next steward.
As you step inside, you are greeted by the warmth of original woodwork, gleaming hardwood floors, and freshly painted interiors that enhance the home’s timeless charm. The grand living room welcomes you in—can you picture a quiet winter evening beside the wood-burning fireplace, or a summer twilight on your private three-season screened porch, just one of the many true hidden gems. The main level flows effortlessly into a dedicated dining room for your most cherished gatherings. Beyond, an updated kitchen offers a bright eat-in space overlooking the spacious backyard, perfect for slow Sunday mornings. A secondary entry from the driveway and garage leads through a functional back hall featuring a charming and unique butler sink—an unexpected detail that adds both character and convenience.
The upper level is designed for both rest and versatility. Four bedrooms on one level are a rare find in Tangletown, including one bedroom lined with a striking wall of windows that fills the space with natural light. The primary bedroom offers generous proportions along with two separate walk-in closets. A unique separate staircase leads to a secluded fourth bedroom and full bath—originally designed as living quarters for a nanny or housekeeper in years past. Today, it offers the perfect sanctuary for a guest suite, a teenager seeking independence, or a quiet professional studio. Just outside the bedrooms, a charming Juliette balcony tucked into the second-floor hallway offers a cozy spot to enjoy the sun or settle in with a good book. An expansive attic provides excellent storage, while the lower level features a comfortable family room and office space for everyday living. Complete with a rare attached heated two-car garage, this is a home for those who refuse to compromise. It is, quite simply, one of the best that Tangletown offers.
