"Come on in and visit a while," says this delightful cottage as you enter it's front door. This home may be small in size but full of so much light that you'll never notice, you'll just see the wonderful yard where you'll enjoy leisurely times with your friends or gardening on the weekends. This recently remodeled home has too many upgrades to list; new electrical, plumbing, tankless hot water heater, new skylights, new bath, mocha colored bamboo flooring, zero clearance gas fireplace, and that's just on the inside of this home. It also has a new roof, newly painted throughout, new front porch, french drain, new cripple walls and some new siding, seismic upgrades, there isn't anything left to do here. The floor plan is wide open and great for entertaining, there are french doors that open to the sunroom/dining room, more french doors to the bedroom and a small opening in an interior wall of the bedroom that lets shares light from the skylight in the bath. With nothing to block your sunlight, you'll feel like summertime every day in this home, it is truly flooded with sunlight all the time.
