This historic and storied home has had quite the list of notable and outstanding owners. First built for local banker Joseph H Stephens, and later occupied by podiatrist Edward E O'Brien and his family. Dr. O'Brien saw patients here, and in fact, his equipment for crafting orthopedic and special fitting shoes still graces the workshop in the full basement under the home. Bathed in light, this spacious & grand beauty will really knock your socks off. Much of the original charm and craftsmanship still stands today. Add to that all of the modern updates and creature comforts you'd expect, and it all equals a truly exquisite property. The delightful front porch is sure to win your heart, and the manicured gardens designed by the resident Master Gardener are truly breathtaking. A gated motor court leads to a two car garage with plenty of room for vehicles and all your gear. Located on the cusp between Boulevard Park and Marshall School, this location can't be beat for enjoying all that Midtown, Downtown, and East Sacramento has to offer. Easy freeway and transit access, myriad dining, entertainment, cultural, and shopping options, and life under the urban forest tree canopy are all yours to enjoy. This is truly grand style living at its finest. Act to close in time for The Holidays!
