Property is move-in ready.
While the structure is over 100 years old, the property is well-maintained and move-in ready following recent updates. The interior features refinished original hardwood floors, fresh paint, and preserved historic plaster work. Although wall vents suggest older heating systems rather than modern central HVAC, the overall condition is functional and aesthetic for its dual residential/commercial use.
Situated directly across from McKinley Park in the heart of Midtown, this property offers unparalleled visibility and prestige in one of Sacramento's most sought-after neighborhoods.
The C-2 SP zoning allows for a unique blend of residential and commercial use, providing a rare opportunity for professionals to operate a business and reside in the same historic structure.
Designed by renowned architect Leonard Starks, the residence features meticulously preserved 1923 details, including original wood flooring and hand-troweled plaster of Paris walls.
The 3,202 square foot lot is relatively compact, which restricts outdoor private space and may limit future expansion possibilities for the structure.
Located on Alhambra Boulevard, the property is subject to significant street traffic and noise, which may detract from the quietude expected of a traditional private residence.
