**MULTIPLE OFFERS. HIGHEST AND BEST OFFERS DUE BY NOON ON 7/21/26.**. This charming Clyde bungalow offers the kind of character and outdoor living that is hard to find. Original hardwood floors, solid wood doors, glass doorknobs, and beautifully preserved trim give the home warmth and personality, while thoughtful updates make it comfortable for everyday living. The spacious eat-in kitchen opens to a screened porch and fenced backyard, creating an easy connection to the outdoors. Nearly an acre has been creatively transformed with terraced gardens, an outdoor shower and primitive bath, and an upper fire pit area where mountain views become the backdrop for evenings outside. Upstairs, a bonus room and full bath provide approximately 391 additional finished square feet not included in the advertised total due to the 6'3" ceiling height. An unfinished basement adds a small single garage, workshop, laundry, storage, and mechanical space. With city water, a cozy wood stove, central HVAC, a 2020 roof, and a convenient location, this home is as practical as it is memorable!
