It's hard to imagine in today's world, but very special, how a well-built home from 100 years ago can provide such peacefulness. The light streaming in from all the windows completes the picture - all the original features shown off perfectly. Lots of arches, 10' ceilings, built-in bookshelves below the windows on either side of the fireplace makes you wonder why they can't design and build a home like this today. And with the excellently upgraded kitchen, picture yourself creating a very special dinner and placing it in pretty dinnerware on the dining room table with views to the outside. While the backyard has a lot of room for a very large pool, even without the pool, the patio provides a lot of room for outdoor gatherings. Sit and swing with a book in the chairs hanging from the large black olive tree which shades the yard. Want a few extras? - the front pecky cypress double door so you can open the top half and shut/lock the bottom; wood shutters held open with vintage shutter dog hardware. Worried about old knob-and-tube wiring? Don't; it's gone. Modern features also include a 2-zone A/C system and a metal roof installed in 2019. This 4 bedroom (yes, for those needing a downstairs bedroom, there is a bedroom, which used to be a sleeping porch, off the living room), 1.5 bath house is located in a niche neighborhood just south of Belvedere and Parker. You are close to literally everything. It's a friendly house in a friendly neighborhood that is exploring the possibility of seeking historic designation.
