A remarkable opportunity to own a beautifully restored historic home in the Drake neighborhood, now priced more than $36,000 below the Assessor's value! Completely reimagined for modern living, this 4-bedroom, 3-bath home combines historic character and craftsmanship with the peace of mind of extensive new construction.
Improvements include a new poured-concrete foundation, roof, windows, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and new 2-car garage. Inside, original refinished oak floors and architectural details complement an open main level, custom kitchen, and spacious drop zone.
The exceptional new lower level features 9-ft ceilings and large egress windows, offering tremendous potential for additional bedrooms, a bath, and living space. Adding even more value is a 10-year, 100% residential rehabilitation property tax abatement on qualifying improvements.
