Property Tour
1940's Beauty with the Charm of Yesteryear + Today's Updates
Absolutely charming Piedmont bungalow, conveniently located just off the freeway! This 1940's jewel has been completely modernized and is ready for you to move into and enjoy this Fall!
Right as you stroll up the front walk, you'll be inclined to sit and rest a bit on the inviting front porch featuring a covered patio area and outdoor wood burning fireplace. Stepping through the front door, you'll note the handsome original hardwood floors have been lovingly restored and stained with a modern Walnut color. The main living area offers enough space to serve as a living room and dining room, and has a wood burning fireplace flanked by original sconces on either side.
The kitchen is divine: with herringbone tile flooring, brand new white cabinetry, Quartz slab countertops, new stainless steel appliances including a gas stove & two windows overlooking the front porch. It is filled with natural light and offers abundant countertop space. The bathroom has been carefully renovated as well: with period perfect hexagon tile flooring, blush colored shower tile and a brand new vanity. The lighting throughout the home quite literally shines. Using high end lighting shops like Visual Comfort, Currey & Co and Fanimation...bespoke fixtures selected for each area to give it the exact vibe & style it deserves as well as convey a sense of comfort.
One of the best treats you'll appreciate here after living in a smaller home or apartment is the existence of a laundry room! Located in a room just off the kitchen, this space is light filled and fits a full sized washer & dryer with room to spare to fold clothes as well.
What about the location? As far as walkability goes, this neighborhood can't be beat. You can stroll down to Montclair on a Sunday morning and hit up the Farmer's Market, or go grab dinner at Crogan's. To have this within a mile from your house is something that is hard to appreciate enough! From a commute perspective, this place is located in just the right spot: 1 block to the freeway will get you to SF or the South Bay in no time.
More Stellar Details:
*Dual paned windows
*Side & back yard spaces offer plenty of options to use your imagination to create the perfect hangout area for your family. The hillside at the entry to the property has an area filled with sun ideal for those planter beds you've been dreaming of.
*1 car detached garage part of property
*Low Maintenance yard! If yard work is NOT on your agenda, this place is for you. A small patio and a great front porch is just the ticket to evening relaxation. The mature trees behind the home provide privacy and shade, while not requiring a ton of work! Win-win!
*Central heat plus 2 fireplaces mean cozy winters here in your new home
*Just 1 block to jump on Highway 13!
*.08 of a mile to downtown Montclair
***NOTE: and this is important if you fit in this category!! The home directly across from this one will be for sale momentarily. It is nearly identical in size and will be similar in updates (just not exactly the same, but same quality). If you happen to be in the market for two homes, or say want to purchase a home with your sister/brother/parents/best friend, this is the opportunity of a lifetime. When else could you wake up and YOOHOO! your sis across the way and get out on your front porch and have coffee every AM? It's like a commune, but not because you'll each have your own place. The 2nd home will be ready in December/January, so keep this in mind, or contact Marisa for more details!
