About this home
A lot of the character is original. A lot of the expensive work is done. Built in 1924, this Craftsman has the kind of personality that's increasingly hard to find. Original hardwood floors, coved ceilings, picture rail, and a welcoming living and dining room set the stage. There's a wood-burning FP with Batchelder tile details and original built-ins. The eat-in kitchen keeps the charm, with quartz counters, freshly painted cabinetry, and new appliances. Here's where this home really makes sense: approximately $50,000 in improvements have already taken care of the big-ticket items. New electrical wiring, plumbing, water main, sewer line, and furnace mean you can spend less time worrying about the expensive stuff and more time making the home your own. Fresh interior and exterior paint and new light fixtures add to the appeal. There's more to discover downstairs. The high-ceiling, walk-out basement offers a world of possibilities within the home's approximately 2,000 SF like additional bedrooms and baths, media room, workshop, or future finished living area. An ADU may be worth exploring. Outside, the generous lot (NR3 zoning) offers room for gardening and play, with potential for a DADU (buyer to verify). A garage and substantial off-street parking are welcome bonuses. The Othello light rail station is within walking distance. A home with a century of character, the expensive essentials already addressed, and plenty of opportunity for what's next. An appealing combination....
