    What's special

    Classic Craftsman-style home from the Art Deco era offering all the character and charm of yesteryear, but with a modern twist of elevated design that feels sophisticated, yet relaxed. Situated in the prestigious and highly sought after Vernon Heights neighborhood on a tree-lined street, this home features over 1,500 sq ft of finished living space, a bathroom on every floor, three seasons room, a rare attached garage, expansive deck as well as a large stamped concrete patio, and design that makes the outdoor spaces a seamless extension of the interior living space. Improvements include updated windows, recently created finished family room in the lower level, new oven/range (2024), interior paint (2022 & 2023), stained decking (2022), stunning limestone landscaping, and easy to maintain perennial plantings. The trellis lends entry to the back yard from the front and gives the feeling of entering an English garden. A truly unexpected amount of storage, including multiple walk-in closets, a storage shed, and built-in shelving and cabinetry. Come see for yourself the beauty and value being offered. Surely, this one won't last long!
