3 bedroom house for sale

Overview

This classic mid-century modern has been home to the designer's family since 1951. Now, this historic home can be yours. Sitting high above the street for privacy and wonderful sunset views, it exudes appeal both from the curb as well as inside. You'll be amazed at the array of original details. The living room features a high beamed, California redwood ceiling, a stunning stacked-brick fireplace, and three picture windows, two with sensational views to the west. The dining room also faces west, with another large window to enjoy the vista. The efficient, galley-styled kitchen retains its original bones, with cabinets with oversized drawer-pulls and doorknobs. There's even a banquette in the kitchen, for that fabulous 50's diner vibe. Three bedrooms with generous closet space, including a secret door in the primary bedroom closet that connects to the two-car garage. Just wait until you see the period-perfect bathrooms in all their pink-tile and tan-tile glory! There's an oversized tiled shower with frosted glass doors that open into both bathrooms! And the most amazing original sinks - pink and tan of course, with their original hardware. Off the kitchen is a full laundry, with a door that opens into the spacious backyard, with lots of room for play or gardening. There's also a recently installed gutter system, French drain, and foundation waterproofing across the back of the house. The basement has 8-foot-tall ceilings, concrete walls and floor, and runs the entire length of the living space (over 1, 500 additional square footage). One side features a separate fireplace and could become a separate family or playroom. Plenty of space for living expansion, storage, or a workshop (it has a full hatchway). Every room has just been repainted, including the garage. Carpets throughout are brand new, as are hardwood floors in two bedrooms. The primary bedroom features its original cork floor! The driveway was replaced in 2023, and new landscaping was put in this spring. High-efficiency furnace, indirect water tank, membrane roof, oil tank - all just 10 years old or younger. Why live in a cookie-cutter house when this upgraded dream house with its mid-century modern features awaits intact?
