Enjoy the wonderful charm and character of Santa Rosa's highly desired Luther Burbank neighborhood. Supposedly built in 1906 the history runs deep from the welcoming front porch to the coved ceilings and wood floors. Envision this 2 bedroom home becoming the showplace that is possible. The spacious living room is adjacent to the formal dining room. A light and bright kitchen is central to the floorplan. A charming breakfast room opens to the useful rear porch and off of the porch is a den/office room. The front bedroom includes a walk-in closet and is adjacent to the bathroom. The bathroom comes complete with a claw foot tub and a separate stall shower. The rear bedroom also has direct access to the bathroom. The sunfilled rear yard is perfect for creating colorful gardens. A detached garage and attached shed allow for plenty of storage. Some recent updates include a new roof and exterior paint. Just a short distance to Julliard Park, downtown Santa Rosa, just around the corner from the historic Luther Burbank house and gardens.
