Description

Once upon a time in 1930 a Darling Storybook Home was built in the desirable community of Redwood Heights. Ninety-four years later, this house is waiting for its next family to peek through the arched picture window that watches the quiet street. The hardwood floors carry you beautifully through the rooms. The living room fireplace, with full length windows on either side, is ready to warm your hands by on a winter’s eve. Through the archway, the dining room is space enough to host book club or holiday...Once upon a time in 1930 a Darling Storybook Home was built in the desirable community of Redwood Heights. Ninety-four years later, this house is waiting for its next family to peek through the arched picture window that watches the quiet street. The hardwood floors carry you beautifully through the rooms. The living room fireplace, with full length windows on either side, is ready to warm your hands by on a winter’s eve. Through the archway, the dining room is space enough to host book club or holiday gatherings. Three steps up, sunlight spills into the two bedrooms (views of the Cities, Bay & Mt. Tam) that are well situated to provide sweet dreams. While its 2 full bathrooms and kitchen have been beautifully updated, the house’s 1930s history is visible in all the delightful details throughout. The downstairs primary bedroom suite is primed to become a family room if desired, with glass door that opens out onto the spacious yard & garage. An al-fresco dinner on the flagstone patio by candlelight will be a bit of twilight magic next to the lawn that is large enough for an enchanting flower garden or playhouse. Stroll to Famous Jordan Park, Rec Center, Peets Coffee and Redwood Heights Elementary! Come be a part of this neighborhood’s story and find your happily ever after.
