Supplements: The home was originally built in 1929, with a major renovation in 1949 adding the front bay window, kitchen expansion and other upgrades. Recent improvements since the last sale--such as new tile floors, refinished hardwood, new appliances, some new windows and an alarm system--have added function, while great care was taken to maintain the quintessential allure. Entry from the brick walkway leads you onto a front porch with a custom wrought-iron railing, through the period front door. The inviting living room features a dramatic bay window and warm fireplace with a renovated hearth and TV mounted above (included in sale). Graceful arched openings lead to the large formal dining room, which has an oversized window that lets in abundant natural light. The dramatic kitchen was expanded into its current size in 1949 and meticulously restored. The cabinets were re-faced in the shaker style to complement the original hardware, and feature a traditional glass display case. The floor was recently updated with marble tiles in a vintage motif. The gas cooktop, dishwasher and refrigerator have been updated with stainless steel units, while the built-in oven was preserved and restored. The back door has been upgraded to a French door with matching sidelights and opens onto the large back patio. The covered patio looks out over the yard space and is a great place to enjoy the mountain views. The two bedrooms feature newer windows and wood floors. The hall bathroom has been updated with newer tile, windows and some fixtures, which all complement the built-in shelving and cupboards. The second bathroom has restored vintage tile, with a walk-in shower. The home has had a security system installed, with sensors on every window and door for peace of mind while traveling. It sits in a quiet street, one of the best streets on the Westside with very little through traffic. A greenbelt across the street provides a shared neighborhood space. The home is very close to both downtown and the Mesa, as well as Cottage Hospital, Elings Park and Hendry's Beach. All appliances (including fridge in garage), TV and window treatments are included in sale. Garage door will be replaced with new carriage-style door by the end of the week.
