Welcome to a rare opportunity on iconic McDonald Avenue, directly across from the McDonald Mansion. Built in 1890, this historic home blends timeless character with extraordinary outdoor beauty. The grounds are truly special, featuring boxwood and gardenia hedges, rose bushes, and manicured landscaping that create a formal and private garden setting. The backyard is designed for entertaining with thoughtfully designed pavers, maze-like hedges, and a striking marble fountain with a Medusa emblem and Poseidon statue. Architectural details shine throughout, including a hand-crafted cupola atop the garage, a bold black and white exterior with gold leaf accents, and an upstairs patio with wrought iron railings and hand-laid black and white marble tiles. Inside, original wood floors and trim preserve the home's historic charm, complemented by updated mahogany wavy glass windows. A newer roof and heating system add modern comfort. The kitchen and bathrooms are ready for updating, and one bathroom has been taken down to the studs-offering a blank canvas for the next owner to bring their vision to life. This home offers a unique blend of history, artistry, and potential in one of Santa Rosa's most iconic locations.
