Mediterranean charmer! 3 bedroom 2 bath home located in the Palm Haven Neighborhood. With updated kitchen and baths, it preserves its original charm, including gorgeous hardwood floors and an inviting living room fireplace. A cute nook off the kitchen can be used for eating, working or doing homework. * New ROOF * The large and beautifully landscaped lot features front & back patios perfect for morning coffee and afternoon barbeques. A detached oversized 700 sf 2-car garage has plentiful built-in cabinets, plus a large adjacent room that can be an office, yoga room, playroom or perhaps expaanded into an ADU (buyer to verify with City). The house also has a partial finished basement that is not currently being used but that holds potential for the future. All this in a gracious north Willow Glen neighborhood. This is truly a wonderful family home!
