Remarks

A wide brick path, a welcoming front porch, light-filled rooms accented with hand-polished wood trim and glowing wood floors -- features of a bygone era that evoke feelings of comfort today. This classic Craftsman style home has been expanded to create a generously sized kitchen with breakfast nook, 4 bedrooms, formal dining room, separate family room and office (that could be a bedroom). A main-level bedroom has separate entry ( good for home office ?). Primary suite features a wall of wardrobe storage + closet and a new light-filled spa-like bathroom with free-standing tub. The back yard features brick paving and brick planter-box/sitting walls. The home is surrounded by roses, blooming plants, fruit trees, blackberry & raspberry plants, blue berries, artichokes and more!. Just 2 to 3 blocks from Whole Foods market, Peet's Coffee and a plethora of fine eateries, this is a great location for accessing everyday conveniences, schools, and public transportation. (interested parties to verify sizes of structures and lot as sources for this data vary)
