Don't miss seeing this gorgeous home on a large, magical lot – it's the unbelievable opportunity you've been waiting for! This one-story treasure is well set back from the street, with a welcoming frontage, plenty of parking with extra driveway space, along with mature landscaping throughout. The front door is partially hidden in a secluded spot; there is a main gate which leads to a large and inviting courtyard. True Southern California indoor/outdoor living is to be found here, with a stream water feature with small bridges over it runs throughout the generously sized lot, along with easy access to the multi-level courtyard – just perfect for Pinterest! A pergola offers partial shade and alfresco dining is no longer a dream as there are numerous areas underneath the gorgeous oak, olive and avocado trees in which to linger. The interior of this home boasts three bedrooms and two baths, while managing to be light and bright, yet cozy, all at the same time. Beamed ceilings, vintage wood, built-in cabinetry, original architectural details – everything co-exists beautifully to allow for modern day living while honoring the original mid-century design. The floor plan flows beautifully while still allowing for privacy within as there is a separation of primary bedroom from the others, while the expansive living room invites everyone to gather. A dual sided fireplace makes for separation of entertaining easy – groups may gather on one side while someone else enjoys courtyard views and a quiet reading moment on the other. Large picture windows throughout make one feel as if you are in a treehouse with the views of the tranquil courtyard and gorgeous trees. The kitchen is spacious and bright, with washer and dryer hookups conveniently located. Wonderful upgrades have recently been completed, including new copper water lines, new shower valves, a fumigation of the entire property including the garage and pergola, fresh paint, a new garage roof, a newer water heater and freshened up landscaping! There is a bonus room of 324 feet attached to the garage; it's simply perfect for a home office, workout space or whatever your needs might be. This beauty is move-in ready but also offers the opportunity to realize your own specific aesthetic dreams. With character and charm galore, as well as a truly enchanting lot, this is a home not to be missed. It's also the first time it's on the market for sale in 65 years. Come visit and see all of this for yourself!
