The house was built in 1928 and features all the beautiful character elements that make homes of this era so architecturally rich--high ceilings, custom moldings, wood floors and large picture windows. The interior features three bedrooms, each with its own bath, a large family room, a central office and a lovely spacious living room with fireplace, coved ceilings and tree-top views. The residence also has a formal dining room that adjoins a remodeled, sun-dappled kitchen with a breakfast area. The verdant lot has been professionally landscaped and is made up of two parcels. The yard provides wonderful spaces and patios to celebrate, relax and entertain. Lastly, the quiet street is adjacent to miles of hiking trails, the incredible Farnsworth Park where residents enjoy summer concerts in the outdoor amphitheater plus beautiful, recently resurfaced, pickleball and tennis courts. Don't miss this property that is a gem in the foothills and would be a wonderful place to live for years to come.
