Description:

This beautifully unique, 19th century Victorian charmer, sits on an idyllic block of historic homes just ½ block from Dolores Park and 1.5 blocks to the heart of the Valencia art and retail corridor. Presenting one of the most delightful facades on the block, the home retains period details throughout the main floor, while offering up a large, modern master suite above. Showcasing a double parlor with marble surround wood burning fireplace, original sliding pocket doors and a handsome bay window with three exposures, the entry to the home is a delight in itself. The main floor also offers up a full bedroom and bath along with a modern kitchen complete with industrial range and stainless counter setup, perfect for the diligent at-home chef. Both kitchen and the adjacent dining room offer up entries to the landscaped and terraced south facing yard which delivers not only privacy and entertaining space, but wonderfully filtered light from the canopy of Japanese Maples and plantings above. Upstairs the full floor master suite offers up a bedroom with ample room for lounging and features a south facing walk out deck, perfect for sunning in the filtered southern light above the peaceful garden below. The adjacent master bath is extraordinarily grand in scale with an extended, floating, double basin vanity, large walk-in shower enclosure and private commode. Around the corner is a significantly sized master closet and below-eave storage area, ideal for the consummate collector of apparel. The lower level of the home offers up an abundance of finished storage space with high ceilings and presents an opportunity for creating an exercise facility, at home office or other expansion into legal living area. A 1-2 car garage, above garage “living roof” and ornamental gating complete the offerings of this fine home.
