Set on a quiet street, this 1924 home has countless details that make it enduringly livable. Warm hardwood floors and crown molding bring the traditional floor plan to life. The living room is big and bright, with the original fireplace anchoring the room, while the dining room's layout offers a graceful flow for entertaining. The chef’s kitchen is the heart of the home with many delightful features: a cove-inset refrigerator, breakfast bar, gorgeous commercial gas stove, brass hardware, quartz counters and three sinks. The kitchen opens onto a large family room with French doors to the backyard. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a full bath; the back bedroom overlooks the garden and the front bedroom has tree-filled outlooks and a large closet. The primary bedroom is roomy and light-filled, with two closets and lovely views of the hills. The basement is a coveted bonus: a large room with a full bathroom, separate entry and balcony - perfect as a guest room or studio space. The yard is unique and amazing. The level-out spaces are great for lounging and dining and there are four tiers in the garden with raised beds to grow veggies, fruit trees and lawns. The top tier has a patio space for star-gazing and enjoying the views. Fabulous developed as a gardener's dream or left minimal.
