In the heart of the Alvarado Historic District, this red brick bungalow rises with a kind of romance you don't come across often-- grounded, timeless, and deeply rooted in its history.
Tucked within this beloved pocket, the home has been beautifully reimagined, holding onto everything that makes these homes so special while gently elevating the way you live inside it. Thoughtful updates bring peace of mind, including a new HVAC system in 2023, fully remodeled kitchen and bathrooms in 2023, and updated plumbing beneath the home completed in 2024. From the moment you enter, the character is undeniable. Coved plaster walls and hardwood floors set a tone that feels both grounded and timeless. Two inviting living areas and a formal dining space are drenched in natural light and warmed by a fireplace. The kitchen opens effortlessly with a large butcher block island, white cabinetry, marble countertops, stunning Saltillo tile flooring, and high-end stainless appliances with a gas range-- designed for both everyday living and gathering.
Just beyond the main home, a detached one-bedroom, one-bath casita offers flexibility for guests, a studio, or a quiet place to work.
Outside, the home continues to give. Privacy in this grassy backyard, surrounded by beautiful shade trees, is unmatched. A detached two-car garage adds to the rarity of what this home offers.
Welcome to 130 E. Alvarado, where the moment you arrive, you're gently invited in, held in its story, and reminded of what home is meant to feel like.
