About this home

In a serene residential setting, directly across from Beresford Elementary, sits this completely detached 1939 single-family residence offering approximately 1,550 square feet, an unusually flexible floor plan, and a large private backyard anchored by a magnificent mature coast redwood and an assortment of other mature trees. Freshly painted throughout, with new lighting and window shades plus newly refinished and sealed 1939 hardwood floors in the majority of the spaces, this is definitely not a cookie cutter house! One of the home’s most distinctive features is an expansive bonus room featuring a dramatic tongue-and-groove wood vaulted ceiling with exposed beams, a reach-in closet, and a unique curved wall of sliding glass doors overlooking the backyard. The bedroom reflected in public records connects to an additional light-filled retreat/bonus room with built-in dresser and, beyond that, a large walk-in closet, creating a versatile suite of spaces. Another substantial room offers access to the hallway, dining room and a sliding glass door opening directly to the side yard. The home’s unusual configuration provides abundant possibilities for office, den, retreat, hobby, or other permitted uses. The kitchen features quartz countertops, oak cabinetry, whimsical bird-and-butterfly backsplash accents, newer vinyl plank flooring, refrigerator, stainless steel range, dishwasher and built-in microwave. The adjacent dining room retains a charming original 1939 built-in buffet/dry bar and opens to a spacious living room with fireplace and vintage architectural character. The home has one bathroom with tile floor, with combo tub/shower + glass enclosure, skylight, and dual vanity, plus new mirrors and lighting. The attached garage, originally constructed as a horse-and-carriage house, is approximately one car wide and 1½ cars deep and includes washer/dryer hookups. Fresh landscaping is underway. A wonderfully unconventional vintage home offering generous indoor and outdoor space, distinctive architecture, mature trees, and a flexible floor plan rarely found in a rental.
