Property is move-in ready.
This 1892 Victorian cottage is move-in ready and has been thoughtfully restored with significant modern updates. The property features a remodeled bathroom with period-inspired fixtures and a clawfoot tub, a kitchen equipped with modern stainless steel appliances and a farmhouse sink, and energy-efficient dual-pane windows throughout. While the kitchen cabinetry utilizes a more rustic, open-frame design and the backyard requires landscaping, the interior systems, restored hardwood floors, and overall maintenance level meet the criteria for a well-maintained, updated home within its age class.
This 1892 Victorian cottage seamlessly blends preserved period details like original built-ins and hardwood floors with essential modern upgrades, including dual-pane windows and a remodeled farmhouse kitchen.
Situated on a rare 9,100 sqft oversized lot with R2 zoning, the property offers significant versatility for future expansion, RV parking, or the addition of an ADU.
Located in the heart of the La Verne Street Historic District, the home boasts high walkability to Downtown Redlands, Prospect Park, and top-rated schools, ensuring long-term desirability.
With only one bathroom serving three potential bedrooms, the layout may pose a functional challenge for families or buyers seeking modern convenience.
Being situated within a designated historic district may subject future exterior renovations or expansions to strict preservation guidelines and local architectural reviews.
Welcome to a lovingly-restored 1898 Victorian cottage, straight out of a vintage storybook and located within the La Verne Street Historic District, one of Redlands’ most cherished and walkable neighborhoods. This special enclave is part of the historic Altadena Tract - Redlands’ first subdivision - offering a rare opportunity to own a meaningful piece of the city’s architectural legacy. Inside, restored hardwood floors, picture rail molding, and wide cased openings with period trim highlight the home’s Victorian roots, while abundant natural light enhances the warm, inviting layout. Two comfortable bedrooms are located on the main level, with a sunlit loft offering flexible use as a third bedroom, home office, or creative retreat. The dining room is a standout, featuring original built-in cabinetry with crown molding, classic picture rail trim, and a distinctive architectural chimney breast that adds depth and historic character. The space connects seamlessly to the living room, creating an ideal flow for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen blends farmhouse charm with modern function, offering a farmhouse sink, subway tile backsplash, and thoughtful updates, while dual pane windows throughout provide comfort and energy efficiency. The remodeled bathroom fully embraces the home’s historic soul, showcasing a classic clawfoot tub with vintage-style brass exposed plumbing, period-inspired fixtures, and timeless tilework that balances old-world character with contemporary convenience. Situated on a rare oversized lot with R2 zoning, the outdoor space offers exceptional versatility — room for toys, RV or boat parking, future expansion, or potential ADU conversion (buyer to verify). A detached garage adds additional flexibility for storage or future use. All of this is just a short stroll to South Redlands and Downtown, surrounded by award-winning schools and boutique food and shopping, with easy access to Prospect Park, Smiley Library, the Redlands Bowl, local shops, restaurants, and year-round community events. This is a rare chance to own not just a home, but a true chapter of Redlands history, thoughtfully preserved and ready for its next story.
