Restored California Bungalow with Detached Casita
Features include:Pride of ownership! This beautifully restored California Bungalow was built in 1921, and is located in the Belmont Heights Historic District, just a short distance to the beach. It is on an entirely fenced corner lot with mature landscaping and a gorgeous wisteria covered porch.
The home is 1,048 square feet, with 2 bedrooms, and 1 full bathroom, along with a casita that also features a full bathroom. The casita would make a perfect guest house, office, art studio, playroom, etc.

In addition, the living room features a coved ceiling, beautiful large windows and a decorative stucco fireplace with Cal Tile.
The designer kitchen is stunning, with custom Omega cabinetry, Calcutta marble countertops, farm house sink, Bertazzoni range, built in paneled dishwasher and glass subway tile. The adjacent mudroom features limestone tile floors, with laundry and refrigerator hookups and room for a pantry. Located near the kitchen and mudroom, is a brightly lit breakfast nook that can also be used as an office space. The full bath retains the original clawfoot tub, bungalow period cabinetry and penny round tile.
The backyard is a peaceful private retreat, featuring a generously sized split level ironwood deck, arbor and outdoor speaker system that is ideal for entertaining. Central to the yard is a mature pepper tree with a sitting bench built around it.
Along the sunny, west-facing side of the yard lies a separately fenced 300 square foot garden area complete with raised garden beds, compost bin and rain barrel. The property also features a newer roof, copper plumbing, rain gutters, a one-car carriage garage and driveway. |
