This 2 bedroom, 1 ½ bath residence is highlighted by its prime location, expansive lot and idyllic park-like grounds.  Nestled on a peaceful cul-de-sac amid equally breathtaking roads, this rare offering presents the ultimate canvas for creative re-imagination.  Several surrounding homes are in the process of rebuilding or renovation as well, promising even greater appeal throughout the immediate neighborhood.

The home is approached by an impressive circular drive centered upon a traditional stone fountain.  Just inside, the intimate living/dining room combination offers an inviting first impression, with lofty beam ceilings and a brick fireplace enveloping this warm gathering space.  The more casual family room and tidy kitchen are positioned just beyond, both enjoying picturesque views and fantastic flow to the rear yard and gardens.  The private bedroom wing features two restful rooms, an immaculate vintage bath and an additional half bath also accessible from the family room.  In addition to these main living spaces, a separate wisteria-adorned cottage is poised to function as a guest room, flexible home office, artist studio or exercise room.

Beyond the residence, the sizeable lot is the distinguishing value of the offering.  Lush green perspectives are captured from every vantage point.  Redwood, fruit and walnut trees frame thriving lawn, wandering paths and sun-drenched gardening areas.  Sunny exposure across the grounds develops a spectacular venue for outdoor entertaining and recreation. A broad buildable footprint and desirable cul-de-sac locale round out the property’s vast potential.
