Tucked just around the corner from the bustling activity of Upper Ocean Street, this charming Craftsman welcomes you home with a refreshing burst of color to 1028 square feet of comfortable living space bedecked in bright tones and artful appointments. Enjoy the good life amidst over $60K of recent improvements and upgrades, with hardwood floors in all the main living areas providing a warm and inviting atmosphere, enhanced by a cozy fireplace. The kitchen is equipped with a farmhouse copper sink, Miele dishwasher and gas oven-range, perfect for those who love to cook, and a mud room with washer and dryer provides ideal transition to the back yard. There is a detached oversized garage suitable for a large vehicle with ample shop space and a special enclosed “catio” for the kitties, where someone seeking flexible living arrangements can explore converting the entire 320 SF building to an independent Accessory Dwelling Unit. The outdoor areas have been converted to a lush environment with multiple fruit trees and relaxing habitats where you can take a snooze in the hammock, a soak in the hot tub, or gather with friends and family in total privacy amidst mature landscaping behind high walls and fences that create a veritable sanctuary in the city.
