Unicorn alert! Located on a quiet street in St Johns is a solid craftsman farmhouse on a magical .68 acre lot. This is a rare opportunity to create a true urban homestead in the middle of the city while being blocks away from shops, restaurants, and incredible parks. The beautiful 1914 home retains its original charm, with a grand front porch leading to a spacious living and dining room with original millwork and wood floors, plus a newer permitted woodstove for cozy evenings by the fire. The kitchen features original handmade cabinetry with updated appliances and an open passthrough for flow to the dining space. There is a main floor bedroom and bath as well as a spacious sun porch that could be used as a guest space. Upstairs, find a large common area with two additional bedrooms, a bathroom, and a bonus room that could be a fourth bedroom or home office with access to a rooftop deck. The unfinished basement offers plenty of storage and workspace. The house is special, but the real showstopper here is the property itself: there are so many nooks and crannies to explore, including an oversized shop, a private Airstream area with an outdoor bathroom complete with ADA accessible shower, a Cob-style pizza oven, extensive gardens, an alpaca enclosure, and so much more. For the development minded, the property is zoned R5 and could potentially accommodate a small subdivision with the Residential Infill Project allowances (buyer to do due diligence), or work the land to create the urban farm of your dreams as there is plenty of space to spread out and play.
