Inside, exposed brick and pocket doors showcase the home’s history, while tasteful fixtures, butcher-block countertops, under-cabinet lighting, and a large pantry bring a fresh, modern feel. Built-in shelving and California Closet systems maximize storage and organization, and the efficient layout makes the interior both stylish and practical. High ceilings and natural light give the home an inviting sense of space.

An expansive rear porch with soaring ceilings and a wrap-around design serves as an outdoor living room, great for morning coffee or evening entertaining.
