Wonderful location on a very desirable Walnut Heights street. Close to downtown but far from the crowds, this home feels like it is in the country. This property has not been sold in over 50 years. Situated on a naturally breathtaking FLAT lot, the rear yard backs up to a peaceful meandering creek. What an incredible setting to come home to after a long day! Or perfect for your large summer gatherings. Some updating has been done, including a newer kitchen with solid surface counter-tops, white shaker cabinetry. But this is really a blank slate to make your forever home. You’ll love the huge formal dining room off the kitchen and the beautiful living room with a high open beam ceiling of gorgeous redwood. Most windows are dual panes and there is central heating. The spacious primary suite has a newer bathroom with custom shower and vanity. From the primary bedroom, there’s a sliding glass door that goes directly to its own private patio in the stunning backyard, filled with raised beds for gardeners, cherry, peach, pear, pomegranate, and lemon trees. Plus, there’s a rose garden. To see is to love! Sunday Open House 12/10/2023 1-4pm
