Every town has a home everyone recognizes. In Santa Rosa, it's the iconic purple Victorian on Beaver Street. Built in 1890, this beloved Queen Anne residence blends historic charm with creative spirit in the heart of downtown Santa Rosa. With 3 bedrooms, 1 bath, and approximately 1,406 sq ft of living space, the home showcases high ceilings, tall windows, and light-filled rooms that highlight the craftsmanship of another era. The period-style kitchen with original cabinetry and sink celebrates the home's heritage, while a full basement offers abundant storage, workshop space, or potential for future possibilities. Set on an expansive 8,750 sq ft lot, the property features mature landscaping and two detached outbuildings ideal for an art studio, home office, garden retreat, or hobby space. A private driveway, carport, and generous outdoor space add both convenience and flexibility. Located just blocks from downtown restaurants, shopping, and Santa Rosa Junior College, this distinctive property offers character, creativity, and investment potential in one of the city's most walkable locations. A rare opportunity to own one of Santa Rosa's most recognizable historic homes.
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.
