Tucked behind a handcrafted redwood pergola and a 60+ year-old wisteria vine, this beloved 1909 home blends historic charm with modern comfort. Lovingly cared for by the same family for over three decades, it tells a story—of fireside gatherings, holiday meals in the chef’s kitchen, and garden conversations with neighbors passing by. Renovated in 2020 with respect for its character, it retains hardwood floors, French doors, and built-in bookcases, paired with radiant floor heating, Marvin windows, custom Crystal cabinetry, and premium appliances including a Fulgor Milano range and Miele dishwasher. The main level glows with light and offers a breakfast nook with built-in bench, home office, and sunny flex room opening to an expansive deck for morning coffee or sunset wine. Downstairs: three en-suite bedrooms, laundry, and a private suite with separate entrance and kitchenette—ideal for guests or in-laws. Two outdoor areas feature Japanese maples, fruit trees, and raised beds ready for your green thumb. All this just 3 blocks to Piedmont Avenue’s vibrant offerings, with a 91 Walk Score and quick I-580 access.
