What This House Offers
Charming 1920s cottage in the heart of lower Bungalow Heaven -- lovingly maintained and full of character. Sunlight pours through original windows onto warm... hardwood floors and into a cozy living room centered around a welcoming fireplace. The vintage kitchen delights with black-and-white reproduction tile and timeless charm. Three comfortable bedrooms plus a couple of flexible bonus rooms give you space to create a home office, studio, or nursery. Central AC provides modern comfort while many original details--moldings, trim, and period touches--preserve the house's soul. Outside, generous rear grounds invite al fresco dining on the patio, with citrus trees and thoughtfully maturing, drought-tolerant landscaping creating a serene, low-maintenance oasis. A true gem in a wonderful neighborhood--an exceptional value for those who adore vintage character. MLS# P1-26951
