The 7,039 sq ft , pie-shaped lot, is directly at the end of a quiet and hidden cul-de-sac. Built in 1956, 3 bedroom, 2 bath, 1218 square foot home PLUS 360 SQ FT BONUS "Adventure Room", outdoor covered patio, covered front porch, and a fenced in tree-filled rear yard which fully wraps around three sides of the home. The design of this splendid architectural example features an open floor plan, vaulted tongue-and-groove, stained-wood deck ceilings, and authentic structural exposed beam construction. This home was clearly inspired by American real estate developer Joseph Eichler, who began building Mid-Century "California Modern" tract developments after living in a house designed by the famed Architect Frank Lloyd Wright. The rich vaulted stained-wood ceilings are featured not only in the common areas (living, dining, & kitchen), but also in all three bedrooms. The common areas are accented with crown molding which follows the low-sloping A-framed roof, adding to the homes warm and elegant feel. After your visit, you will be able to realize the lasting visual appeal of these ceilings. The abundance of natural light in the home comes from the glass_front_wall, lots of windows, and skylights in the common areas and bathrooms. The clean and generously sized kitchen has locations for washer, dryer, and dishwasher; lots of storage, and even more original kitchen cabinet charm. Speaking of charm, the currently installed Western Holly oven, is the exact year and model that originally came with the home when it was new in 1956. Since not every potential buyer is going to be interested in keeping this oven or appreciate what went into the restoration, it will be offered for purchase, separate from the sale of the home, without exception. Whether you purchase this classic oven or not, the white oven which matches the range will come with the home. The bonus 360 square foot "Adventure Room" has fourteen windows spanning 30 feet over two full walls bringing the outside in. This room looks out onto the 170 sq ft covered patio, wilderness-feeling backyard, and beyond. This room also leads directly into the completely finished and insulated, attached 2-car garage with vaulted ceiling. The front yard is low maintenance and desert inspired , with large night blooming cactus, Sago palm, and a "sweet as sugar" dwarf orange tree. Adjacent to the front entry is a covered front porch which is nicely hidden from street view. The generously sized rear yard presents several distinct and separate environments. In the rear yard habitat, one is completely isolated from any activity in front. Tucked into the back corner under a dense shade tree, is a rustic 6' X 12' tongue-and groove shed. The rear fence is adjacent to an expanse containing mature trees, wild grass, birds, and wildlife. The low sloping roof, makes for easy roof/gutter cleaning and maintenance. The large surface area and easy access, make this an excellent home for solar energy generation. The 40 year roof surface is approximately 12 years old. The house is pre-wired for stereo speakers and volume controls in 7 areas. The bonus "Adventure Room" is wired for 7.1 surround sound. The low voltage wiring has been updated with a structured wiring system for security cameras, speakers, IR control, telephone, network, satellite, off-air antenna, and cable, in addition to areas wired for HDMI, VGA, component video, and distributed audio. There are multiple volume control and recessed speaker locations, as well as non-recessed speaker locations, all with wiring. Seven security cameras are currently attached to the house. With exception of the actual cameras and low voltage wiring, no other technology or equipment is included. Other features are updated windows, copper plumbing, decora switches and outlets throughout, forced air heating, rear yard sprinkler system, four older quality ceiling fans with strong motors, whole house exhaust fan in garage, crawl space insulation, and original wood floors are present under the existing flooring.
