Remarks

Meticulously upgraded and remodeled to modern standards, this meticulously preserved single family home in the vibrant heart of Japantown maintains its Victorian character and is recognized as a Mills Act Historic Resource resulting in a SUBSTANTIAL property tax advantage. Good luck finding a better blend of timeless elegance - with towering 11' ceilings throughout (and 18' in the indoor kitchen), grand double-hung windows, bespoke hardwood floors, and numerous other historic flourishes - and modern upgrades both inside and out. From the restored foundation, large upgraded basement and attic, owned 7.2kW solar system, 200-amp electric, and 50-amp EV charger to the vaulted kitchen addition with six skylights and french door egress to a professionally designed and installed resort-style backyard paradise featuring a 15x35' solar and gas-heated saltwater pool, luxury spa, custom stone hardscape, sprawling Forever Redwood pavilion with Bromic heating & oversized outdoor ceiling fans, and a loaded outdoor kitchen with custom Fire Magic barbecue, ZLINE exhaust, two refrigerators, & motorized flat screen TV lift, this home offers a rare blend of history, luxury, and significantly-reduced carrying costs just minutes from top dining, parks, transit, the airport, & major employers.
