About this single-family home
Wow! This stunning 2-bedroom, 1 ½-bathroom Craftsman home in prime Belmont Heights has that flowing classic layout of living room to dining room to kitchen, and has been highly upgraded to provide modern conveniences without sacrificing the period-correct beauty of this gorgeous California bungalow! This is the antithesis of a flip-the owner has lovingly upgraded many of the critical portions of the home within the last year, including a new foundation with footings for the addition of a second story if desired, a brand new 30-year composition shingle roof, and a new air conditioning system and furnace including new ducting! All of the aforementioned work was done with permits. In addition, this beautiful home has updated plumbing lines underneath the home, partially new electrical with push-button period-correct light switches, and new/upgraded interior lighting including restored antique chandeliers with hand-blown glass shades and new ceiling fans. The original windows now all function properly with updated sashes, many of them fitted with period-correct screens. The home also features new exterior paint and new interior paint in all rooms, refinished oak, and Douglas fir flooring throughout with professional removal of asbestos vinyl flooring in the kitchen. The home was also tented for termites. The kitchen has been upgraded with updated cabinets, a new dual fuel range, new dishwasher, a new bar seating area, an updated backsplash and countertop, new garbage disposal, and a new microwave. Further, the original bathroom has been completely remodeled with new flooring, wainscoting, and beautiful new dual vanity sinks. A period-correct ½ bathroom was added to make social and family gathering that much more enjoyable. Similarly, no expense was spared in making the exterior of the home a beautiful private retreat with new and upgraded decks, a verdant oasis of updated landscaping, and a partially new sprinkler system with multiple new trees and two separate sitting areas for backyard entertaining. The property is located on a generously sized corner lot and includes a rare two-car garage that may be ideal for ADU conversion. The garage includes some newer structural elements along with a new garage entry door with a new handle and keypad entry. In the world of fix-and-flips, this home stands alone! Don’t miss out-this beautiful Craftsman will sell very quickly!
