Property is new construction or fully renovated.
While originally built in 1939, this historic property has undergone extensive recent renovations and additions that meet the highest quality standards. The kitchen is fully modernized with high-end professional-grade appliances and a copper farmhouse sink, and the bathrooms feature contemporary tile work and premium fixtures. With major system upgrades including a 2020 HVAC, updated roof, and sewer line replacement, plus a recently constructed modern pool house, the property is in virtually new condition with no deferred maintenance.
The inclusion of two fully detached casitas with kitchenettes and private facilities offers rare versatility for high-yield rental income, guest quarters, or multi-generational living arrangements.
A finished basement and an oversized 9,544 sq ft lot with a private pool are highly uncommon for the Del Norte Historic District, providing significant competitive value over neighboring properties.
Major system updates including a 2020 HVAC, sewer line replacement, tankless water heater, and updated roofing mitigate the typical maintenance risks associated with a 1939 historic home.
While the total square footage is nearly 2,800, it is divided across four separate structures, which may not appeal to buyers seeking a large, contiguous single-family floor plan.
The assigned public schools have lower performance ratings (3 and 4), which could be a deterrent for families prioritizing top-tier educational districts and may impact future appreciation.
