Overview

With roots dating back to 1948, this classic and timeless jewel is updated throughout with freshly painted interiors, beautiful hardwood floors and carpet, plus updated kitchen and bathrooms. Set beyond a living wall of tall privacy hedges, the inviting front yard offers ample space for play and outdoor living with expansive lawn bordered all around with paver stones. A covered front porch introduces the single-level home, which opens to the main living room. A neutral palette extends throughout along with crisp white crown moldings and inset speakers in almost every room – including surround sound in the living room and family room. The wonderfully flexible floor plan offers a living room large enough to also accommodate formal dining if desired. Alternatively, the kitchen and family room combination lends itself equally well to dining, plus the enclosed sun porch is perfect for after-dinner enjoyment.

Fine wood cabinetry topped in granite slab with full-height backsplashes defines the kitchen, which includes a movable island topped in butcher block. Newer stainless steel appliances will delight any chef, and sliding glass doors to the rear yard are perfect for indoor/outdoor living. In a separate wing are 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, including a large primary suite with fully customized walk-in closet and remodeled en suite marble bath with luxe shower and jetted tub. Completing this great home is the private rear yard, with numerous redwood trees providing a cool retreat and low-maintenance grounds with an irrigation system.

Located in North Fair Oaks, an enchanting neighborhood known for its close-knit community with eclectic style and proximity to Meta campuses and Highway 101 to all of Silicon Valley or San Francisco.
