Set in Santa Rosa's Cherry Street Historic District, this thoughtfully maintained and restored Craftsman offers the character buyers hope to find in a period home, with updates that support comfortable everyday living. Original hardwood floors, an arched front entry, a vintage fireplace, and generously sized windows bring warmth and architectural identity, while the upgrades feel clean and consistent with the home's style. The updated kitchen features abundant cabinetry, stone counters, stainless appliances, recessed lighting, a subway-style backsplash, and a large window over the sink for natural light. The layout includes two bedrooms and one updated bath, while the spacious rear flex room adds versatility for a dedicated office, media room, studio, workout area, or additional living space. Built-in storage adds function, and French doors open to a covered patio that creates an easy transition between indoor and outdoor living. The detached garage offers substantial utility with room for storage, hobbies, or workshop use beyond parking alone. For buyers drawn to historic homes, walkable-to-downtown convenience, and a property with real character, this is a truly wonderful opportunity.

R-1-6-H
CHERRY STREET
Single-Family Residential - 6,000 sq ft - Historic Combining District
The R-1 zoning district is applied to areas of the City intended to be maintained as residential neighborhoods comprised of detached and attached single-family houses, clustered Residential hillside projects, and small multi-family projects, together with compatible accessory uses. The maximum allowable density ranges from 2 to 13 dwellings per acre, with the specific allowable density for each parcel shown on the zoning map by a numerical suffix to the R-1 map symbol see Section 20-22.040. The R-1 zoning district implements and is consistent with the Residential Very Low Density where residential clustered on hillsides is desirable, Low Density or Open Space, Low Density, and Medium Low Density land use classifications of the General Plan. The H combining district is intended to recognize, preserve, and enhance Santa Rosa's locally designated historic resources.
