About this home

Bring your tool belt and inspiration to this handyman special! Lots of potential in this large craftsman-style home built in 1927. Huge sunroom off the back. In 2019, improvements include vinyl plank floors and a new roof. Main floor has 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, large kitchen, formal living and dining rooms and cozy den. Upstairs you'll find an additional 3 bedrooms and a bath with large bonus room. There is a small creek on the property and a storage building. Don't miss the large redwood tree in the front yard. This home needs a lot of work. Electrical, some windows and most surfaces need some love and attention, but a solid value for the square footage and yard in a great area.
