This one-of-a-kind, architecturally significant home offers rare Mills Act tax savings and has been featured in national and local publications, including *American Bungalow Magazine* and *The Bungalow: America’s Arts and Crafts Home*. Described as a “Spanish/Mission Eclectic with Craftsman influences,” the home showcases swooping curves, arched windows, and a cobblestone foundation—believed to be inspired by the architect’s Michigan-born wife, combining West Coast charm with Midwest familiarity. Lovingly maintained and thoughtfully upgraded, this brick bungalow blends historic character with modern convenience. Preserved gumwood built-ins, refinished hardwood floors, and original details remain intact, while recent updates include fully paid solar, whole-home water filtration, upgraded electrical, high-efficiency HVAC, alarm system with video surveillance, fresh interior paint, new landscaping, and a remodeled kitchen with new appliances, hardware, paint, and a charming breakfast nook with storage. The main level features a spacious living room, dining room, kitchen, three large bedrooms, and a full bath. A walkout basement offers a bonus room with kitchenette and bath—ideal for guests, office, or studio—with access to a fully fenced private yard. Enjoy neighborhood and sunset views from the refinished 20x10 rear deck. Perched on a gentle slope, the home includes a rare attached garage under the main living space with parking for two cars (not tandem). Just blocks from 30th Street’s dining and shops, and three blocks from Morley Field and Balboa Park.
