Located in the desirable Elmwood, this cheery craftsman is an inviting blend of timeless charm and modern upgrades. You're welcomed via the bright mud room that the sellers used as a library where they enjoyed sun dappled afternoons with a good book. From there, an open living and dining area beckons with an encaustic tiled fireplace, original inlaid hardwood floors, box beam ceilings, and enduring wainscoting. Through an elegant squared off archway, you'll enter the light filled kitchen which underwent a complete renovation with Miele appliances, Carrara marble countertops and wide European oak plank floors. Up the stairs to a primary suite with modern bath and custom closets, 2 additional sunny bedrooms and a refreshed hall bath. The sliding doors were often left open to the sunny deck where happy gatherings took place and the custom built swing provide a place to nap, to work from home on, or a cozy spot to catch up with visitors over a glass of wine. No need for a car with vibrant College Ave offerings just 3 blocks away and Rockridge a 1/2 mile stroll [Walkscore 95]. Urban dwellers rejoice - you've found home.
