Property description
This is a beautiful, well-built, 101-year-old historic home built in 1915. It is the second-oldest home in the historic Los Olivos/Alvarado neighborhood. The main home features the original wood flooring in excellent condition, 2,560 square feet, 2 stories, 4 huge bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and one office/den with separate exit. The first floor has 2 bedrooms with wall-to-wall windows, formal dining room, parlor, and kitchen. The upstairs has 2 bedrooms and a cedar closet. There is a basement/workshop with an outside entrance. The separate guest house has 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom, kitchenette and walk-in closet. There is a detached two-car garage (originally a carriage house) with laundry. This home is being sold ''as-is'' in its present charming condition. There is irrigation in the front & backyards. This is the lowest price per square foot in the neighborhood within the last 10 years! This home has no central HVAC system, but we do have a bid for the costs associated with installing this. All items but the dining room table and chairs are available for purchase outside of escrow. This home appraised for $450,000.
