If you're looking for something special, consider this 4 BD, 5 BA, 2 story home in a desirable area of Northeast Downey. Originally this was built as a single story home with many of the features of the Molly Pitcher Ranch style architecture from the 1950's. Today, this home is just waiting for a buyer with the vision and perception of a "diamond in the rough". Features include: Well designed kitchen with sub-zero refrigerator, wet bar, loads of cupboard space and charming dining area with brick fireplace, custom oak mantle, window sills and beamed ceiling. Huge bedroom downstairs with 3/4 bath and separate entrance would make a great in-law quarters, student dorm or game room. Master bedroom upstairs is enormous. Loads of B/In custom closets, shelving and separate dressing area. Many large rooms that can interchange purpose or usage to accommodate your needs. Backyard has endless possibilities with a pool and patio already there just waiting for the fun to begin. Huge 3 car garage with lots of storage and workshop might have the potential of an ADU. (Accessory Dwelling Unit would need to be verified with the City of Downey) Bonus features: Kohler jetted tub, locking gun closet, 2 beautifully remodeled downstairs bathrooms, Porte Cochere and block walls. Location and price make this home a winner. A MUST SEE!
