Reminiscent of a rustic outpost in the midst of a bustling city, this vintage hillside charmer is a place where privacy & serenity come together in perfect harmony. Flanked by trees & foliage, a walled & gated patio entry leads to hardwood floors gracing the blended living & dining room, replete with crown molding & abundance of natural light. Just beyond is a remodeled kitchen with updated cabinetry, counter tops & appliances with a sitting porch overlooking scenic canyon and hillside views. The bedroom features a bonus room with wall-to-wall windows that bring in sweeping vistas, whilst the bath has been updated with a modern vanity & subway tiled shower. Below is a multi-purpose basement + laundry room with direct access to a patio & backyard. A rare opportunity to move in and enjoy as is, improve the existing, or spark the imagination & build a dream home. Public records show this as a 2 bedroom but it's actually a one bedroom with an enclosed sun room.
