This home is the Best of Both Worlds... this is a charming Colonial Cottage built in 1924 and boasts modern systems and updates that take the worry out of owning a piece of history. For starters, the English garden is perfectly executed and offers privacy and beauty without a lot of maintenance. The inviting front porch is made with Pennsylvania Blue Stone and the house was built with redwood, a nod to the highly detailed construction of the 1920s. The living room is delightful... it's spacious and light with an expansive ceiling. The dual paned windows and hardwood floors are timeless while the built-in hutch is functional and stylish. The modern kitchen is completely updated and offers new flooring, porcelain tile, countertops, cabinets, lighting, and stainless steel appliances. The two downstairs bedrooms have recently replaced double hung, weighted windows while the upstairs room offers a newer, dual pane window and split system AC unit. The FAU/AC is 5-7 years old; a reflective roof was put on about 8 years ago; and the home has full copper plumbing and a newer water heater. There is also an upgraded 200 amp electrical panel, automatic sprinklers, and cedar fenced yard with a keyless entry from the alley. Enjoy walking to shops and restaurants in Uptown while also being close to the freeway. This is a darling home that oozes style and comfort and shouldn't be missed.
