Wonderful fixer opportunity: a charming 2 bedroom 1.5 bathroom craftsman bungalow built in 1932, located in the elegant Forbes neighborhood, close to coveted Sun Valley Elementary, Sun Valley Playground, and downtown San Rafael. The 7,500 square foot lot (per tax record) and immense level-backyard pique the imagination -- so many possibilities! Existing features include peaked ceiling, skylights, hardwood floors, large kitchen with ample storage and counter space, double-pane windows, remodeled bathroom, garage, and deck looking out to a vast yard. Certain parts of the home need some attention but crucial intangibles such as "great flow" and "cheerful energy" exist in spades.
