About this home
Two fully permitted homes on one lot plus a stunning designer detached entertaining patio. A rare and versatile opportunity tucked into the heart of Elmhurst, one of Sacramento's most sought-after neighborhoods near UC Davis Medical Center. The main residence at 5032 T Street (837 sq ft) offers timeless cottage charm with thoughtful modern updates. Rich hardwood floors, original built-ins, and stained-glass privacy window coverings create warmth and character. The kitchen features newer appliances including a dishwasher, disposal, and under-sink water filtration. A 2021 HVAC system and tankless water heater deliver comfort and efficiency. Additional highlights include a designer security screen door with keypad entry, indoor laundry with washer and dryer, and a low-maintenance back courtyard finished with pavers and a softly lit water feature. The detached ADU at 5034 T Street (385 sq ft), built in 2022, is light-filled and stylishly designed. Exposed beam ceilings, large windows, and a flexible living/sleeping area open through a sliding glass door to the backyard. The modern kitchen includes soft-close cabinetry, a full-size dishwasher, and a deep stainless-steel sink. Upgrades include a mini-split HVAC system, tankless water heater, in-unit laundry hookups, a skylit bathroom with moisture-sensing ventilation, and sleek designer finishes throughout. The standout feature is the gorgeous enclosed entertaining patio, completely remodeled in 2021. This high-quality outdoor living space showcases reclaimed wood beam ceilings, a granite countertop with stone vessel sink and sensor faucet, Bosch dishwasher, custom cabinetry, and a striking reclaimed-wood feature wall. Oversized glass barn doors create seamless indoor-outdoor flow. There is space for a refrigerator or wine refrigerator, and a custom Salamander wood-burning Hobbit stove provides cozy ambiance for year-round gatherings. The property is enhanced by fruit trees; Meyer lemon, orange, nectarine, persimmon, lime, and fig, plus a Japanese Magnolia that blooms twice yearly. A gated alley with limited keyed access adds privacy and convenience. Whether you're looking for a primary residence with income potential, multi-generational living, or a unique investment in a prime Sacramento location, this exceptional Elmhurst property delivers character, quality, and versatility.

Elmhurst, located between East Sacramento and Tahoe Park, is a residential and institutional Sacramento neighborhood with tree-lined streets and early-20th-century bungalows. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along T Street at 48th Street, where coffee counters, small eateries, and campus foot traffic set a steady daytime rhythm. UC Davis Medical Center and the UC Davis Health Pavilion act as major anchors, shaping a walk-and-bike cadence around clinics, classrooms, and shaded sidewalks. Brick cottages and modest Tudor details sit behind deep setbacks and mature canopies. McKinley Park and the American River Parkway feel close by for open lawns and long rides. A grid layout keeps blocks legible, with light-rail connections nearby for downtown trips.
