Classic 1938 home has been updated in recent years & is ready for new owner. Refinished hardwood floors are original except for those in the kitchen which are new. Updating was performed by Renewal in 2007 & water heater & HVAC installed in 2011. Sprinkler system also installed in 2011. The roof is 10 years old. Living room is large w/ a fireplace(needs work to burn wood) & bay window. Hot tub on rear deck is salt water. Home is unique-it has a Clairemont Avenue address but sits off the main road allowing for better in & out and affords street parking if you need it.
