Upon entering one of the original homes of the bucolic Laurel neighborhood, the visitor is enveloped in a feeling of pastoral calm. Sunshine streams in from all 4 exposures, illuminating warm plaster walls & gleaming wooden floors. The home’s expansive country kitchen, which has been updated in keeping with the era in which it was built, offers generous cabinetry, a vintage stove, & space for casual dining. The main level is made complete with 2 bedrooms & a handsomely remodeled bathroom. A staircase leads one down to a perhaps unexpected lower level. To the right, one finds oneself in a delightful guest suite made up of an ultra-charming sitting room, an inviting bedroom, a generously sized bathroom with a wall of art tile, & the home’s second kitchen. There’s even a separate entrance to the suite! To the left of the stairs is a laundry room & bonus space with room for a home office, a craft area, or all of the above! Also on this level is the door to the rear patio which is encircled by flowering vines & a climbing rose bush, as well as pomegranate, avocado, grapefruit, and lemon trees. Beyond the storage shed is further garden space in which to grow veggies or perhaps raise chickens as well as a carport. The Laurel district's shops & fine eateries are just blocks away!
