Location. Location. Location.
This cute bungalow is so inviting and cozy. It starts with the welcoming front porch. Inside, you’ll love the hardwood floors, archway that preserves the integrity of the era, gas fireplace and easy, one-level living. The neighborhood is so special, nostalgic, and historic. It's perfect for walking downtown, beautiful parks, golf course, grocery, restaurants, shopping and running/biking trails. It has fantastic curb appeal, with professionally landscaped grounds and full irrigation to keep everything looking lush with minimal effort. The upper level could work as a non-conforming 3rd bedroom. Enjoy many practical updates throughout (including major systems), so you can move right in and start enjoying the home. A rare find that combines character, comfort, and convenience in one perfect little package.
