A True Mid-Century Modern Gem
Thoughtfully updated to celebrate its architectural heritage, this exceptional mid-century modern residence offers 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, formal and casual dining areas, a dedicated craft room, and an expansive upstairs bonus room. Encompassing approximately 2,392 square feet on a flat 6,007 sf lot, the home effortlessly blends authentic period character with today's most desirable upgrades.
The inviting living room showcases warm wood ceilings, hardwood plank flooring, and a dramatic floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace with a wood-burning firebox. Period light fixtures-several of which are original to the home-further enhance its timeless character. A winding staircase leads to the upstairs bonus room, complete with built-in cabinetry and views overlooking the trees and open green space of Balboa Park.
Filled with natural light, the remodeled kitchen features quartz countertops, quality tile flooring, new appliances, soft-close cabinetry, and generous storage. Its open layout connects seamlessly with both dining areas and the living room, creating an ideal setting for everyday living and entertaining. New dual-pane windows and sliding glass doors provide added comfort while framing the surrounding greenery.
Privately positioned apart from the secondary bedrooms, the primary suite includes s beautifully remodeled bathroom with dual sinks, quartz countertops, and a spacious walk-in shower featuring multiple showerheads. Three additional bedrooms are located along the central hallway and are served by two bathrooms.
The backyard offers a peaceful setting overlooking Balboa Park, with mature trees and expansive grassy views. A newly-installed mahogany fence adds warmth and privacy, while the covered patio features its original hardwood flooring. A firepit and grassy yard provide additional space for relaxing, gathering, and enjoying the outdoors.
Parking is abundant with an attached two-car garage, covered parking for approximately 2 additional average-sized vehicles, and driveway space for up to 4 cars.
Recently remodeled with careful attention to detail, this one-of-a-kind home honors the era in which it was built while offering the comfort and functionality of modern living. There truly is nothing else quite like it.
