This inviting 2BD/1BA Craftsman bungalow blends timeless architecture with elevated updates. Period details shine throughout, from gleaming hardwood floors to original built-ins that anchor the home in warmth and character. The premium, updated kitchen is the true heart of the home — featuring an induction range, farmhouse sink, massive island, abundant storage, and high-end stainless steel appliances. Other upgrades include radiant floor heating, heat pump water heater, and an EV charger. The refreshed bathroom showcases custom tile work and a generously sized shower, offering a clean, contemporary feel that complements the home’s historic soul. The primary bedroom overlooks a lush, mature garden — a private oasis filled with citrus trees, jasmine, Mexican sage, and tropical plantings. Designed as a pollinator-friendly habitat, the garden is both vibrant and serene. This sunny backyard offers ample room to dine, entertain, or simply unwind in peace. A detached garden shed houses the washer and dryer and presents an exciting opportunity for an art studio, workshop, or creative retreat. And a bonus attic space awaits — just add a ladder and your imagination. All this, just moments from Lake Merritt, neighborhood amenities, and convenient freeway access for effortless commuting.
