A large skylight and wall of windows flood the dining room with natural light, illuminating the wood paneling that lends a warm elegance. Cooking is a breeze in the bright kitchen adorned with a breakfast nook with vaulted ceilings and tall windows. Two bedrooms offer comfortable repose, including the primary suite with its dual closets, a vintage dressing room, and a convenient ensuite bathroom. Your private backyard is ideal for creating a tranquil retreat with its loquat and lemon trees. Imagine dining alfresco with meals on the brick patio. Adding to this dwelling’s appeal is an unfinished cellar/office/studio/storage area (potential for an in-law suite), ample storage, and a two-car garage - unusual in this community. This abode is set a short distance away from local coffee shops, restaurants, and the 8 and 163 freeways. Tour this incredible home while it’s still available! Read Less
