Description
A distinguished showcase of historic craftsmanship, this property has been thoughtfully upgraded with an ADU in 2017, seamlessly integrating modern amenities while maintaining architectural harmony with the original structure.
Step into a meticulously preserved 1909 Craftsman home, masterfully refurbished by renowned historical architect Martin Weil. This stunning residence effortlessly blends authentic period details with contemporary enhancements, offering an exceptional living experience.
The main house boasts 4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and 2,761 sq. ft. of elegant space. Rich Douglas Fir built-ins, intricate wainscoting, classic molding, and restored period light fixtures preserve the home's original charm, while the impressive woodwork on the stairways and beams highlights its artisanal heritage. A striking Bacgelder fireplace anchors the living room, creating a warm and inviting ambiance.
The dining room exudes timeless appeal with its beamed ceiling and a period copper/milk glass light fixture. The chef’s kitchen has been tastefully renovated, featuring granite countertops, a prep sink, and a refurbished 6-burner, double oven O'Keefe & Merritt range—perfect for culinary enthusiasts. A comprehensive 2004 renovation expanded the home by 300 sq. ft. while introducing key upgrades, including seismic retrofitting, copper plumbing, new electrical systems, dual-zone HVAC, full insulation, new oak flooring, drywall, and plaster. A new roof completes the transformation, ensuring both historic integrity and lasting durability.
Above the garage, a modern ADU offers a spacious studio with a kitchenette, ¾ bath, and an expansive patio, ideal for guests or rental income.
Additional highlights include fully owned solar panels paired with a built-in EV charger—enjoy substantial savings on electricity, along with the convenience and sustainability of modern green living.
This exceptional home is a rare find, preserving the essence of early 20th-century craftsmanship while seamlessly adapting to the demands of modern living.
