This beautiful Craftsman duplex was completely rebuilt in 2015 with amazing attention to details and character. Walk-in the front door to all hardwood floors on the main level and custom millwork throughout. The living room captures the morning sun providing plenty of natural light, which is complemented in the evenings by recessed lighting. The eat-in kitchen has full custom cabinetry with hand crafted tile backsplash, quartz countertops, all stainless appliances and a view from the sink of the neighboring urban farm. Door from kitchen walks out to deck and side yard. Tucked away behind the kitchen to insure privacy from the living room are the guest bedroom and full bathroom. Upstairs is the owner's suite encompassing the entire upper floor, with mountain views from the private deck. Enter through French doors to a large open bedroom with a cozy sitting area that could easily double for office. The adjoining 5 piece bathroom has custom hand crafted tile, separate dual vanities, a soaking tub, large shower, and private water closet. The laundry room is conveniently located off the top landing outside the bedrooms. Off the other side of the foyer from the living room is the door to the garage with a perfect nook for coats and shoes. The garage has a full workshop area across the front with views to the west and walk-out door. Downstairs is the basement apartment with its own private exterior entrance from the side. The apartment has an open concept living/dining/kitchen, two bedrooms, and a full bathroom. Additionally it is outfitted with full sized washer and dryer, hot water heat for cozy winters, and stays wonderfully cool in the summer. Home sits on a fully fenced easily managed smaller lot with beautiful low maintenance xeriscape landscaping. Keeping the trend for low maintenance, the foundation was fully engineered and installed in 1985 with internal rebar, and the siding is hardiplank concrete. Decorative architectural exterior details add the final touch!
