On a little known street in the heart of the Elmwood sits this historical 2 story Craftsman built in 1912, formerly known as the Bragdon Cottage. It has 2 bedrooms and a full modern bath on the main floor and 2 bedrooms, an office and a half bath on the upper floor. The mostly original kitchen opens to the Eden-like backyard, landscaped for low maintenance, large gatherings, hot tubbing and some produce growing thrown in the mix. The spacious living and dining rooms can open to one flowing area or be separated by the original sliding doors. Details abound: old growth box beams, redwood wainscotting and trim, built-in leaded glass cabinets, benches, pantries and deep storage. The fireplace with its California art tile is stunning and the gas insert will appeal to those worried about air quality. Off-street parking & storage shed behind gate. The location is central to all shopping districts, near several freeway access roads, yet quiet and communal with warm and welcoming neighbors.
Very nicely restored classic craftsman in a great location on a quiet street close to bart and shopping. Nicely manicured yard. Great details throughout the home. Thankless waterheater as well as other nice upgrades. Kitchen layout is sort of...
odd being broken into three parts though feels classic and is very clean.

The true fixer, lots of potential charm. On the Bateman St. Cottage Row. Untouched for decades, its paneled dining room, clawfoot tub, and transom windows all await restoration.Same family ownership since '20's.

R-1
Single Family Residential District
The purpose of the Single-Family Residential (R-1) district is to: Recognize and protect the existing pattern of development in the low-density, single-family residential areas of the city consistent with the General Plan; Make housing available for persons who desire detached housing and a relatively large amount of usable open space; Protect adjacent properties from unreasonable obstruction of light and air; and Permit community facilities such as religious assembly uses, schools, parks, and libraries which serve the local population and are not detrimental to the immediate neighborhood.
