Open the carved wooden gate at 1227 Channing, step inside and you will be immediately drawn in by the wonderful front porch and lovely front yard. Character, warmth and light, and a seamless indoor-outdoor are some of the many qualities of this wonderful home. A thoughtful floor plan, perfectly balancing public and private space, a delightful backyard, with the sweetest playhouse, bountiful, thornless blackberry and blueberry bushes, numerous fruit trees (apple, fig and loquat) a lawn, a patio, and a deck, and the ideal location, proximate to a public pool, Strawberry Creek Park, shopping and a host of cafes and restaurants, further enhance this special home. The owners, J and D, shared how much they loved the light airy rooms, the numerous skylights that give views to the clouds, the variety of birds that visited their backyard and the ease of heading out to the backyard to pick apples for a Fall pie, or loading up a bowl with fat, juicy blackberries for breakfast. J. and D. will forever hold these memories and a new owner will soon be able to enjoy these wonderful experiences. This perfect Poet's Corner Craftsman features 3 beds, 2 baths, a handsome living rm w/vaulted, skylit ceiling, a charming kitchen w/ a professional grade range & a stunning primary bedroom & spa-like bath
