Located just blocks from the shops and restaurants in the heart of downtown St. Johns. This gem holds tremendous potential! This spacious 1913 St. Johns Craftsman sits on .35 acres and provides plenty of space to live, work and play! The property includes an equally spacious 1500 square foot workshop with 12+ foot ceilings + lofted storage featuring two oversized garage doors and 220V electrical outlet. This craftsman is still full of charm with built-ins and hardwoods throughout. The main floor features an oversized living room, dining room and a chef's kitchen + 3 spacious bedrooms and a full bath. Upstairs you'll find another full bath + 3 more bedrooms each with their own personality. The lower level has excellent ceiling height, another bathroom, plenty of storage space, and an exterior entrance. This property has great ADU potential. The generous south facing covered front porch can be enjoyed all year! It overlooks the tranquil landscape of St. Johns Park. And the side and backyard provide a quiet little oasis complete with firepit and flowering plants. [Home Energy Score = 1. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10230701]
