There is nothing average about this special home. Set on a quiet country lane this lovingly cared for home built in 1948 retains its classic charm but provides modern day conveniences as well. It is truly the best of both worlds, highlighted by formal rooms filled with character and a wonderful kitchen and family room expansion with a primary suite above! The main house offers 4 bedrooms (one has been turned into a formal dining room so it lives as a 3 bedroom main house), 2.5 bathrooms plus an office area and the detached 2 car garage. Out back has a large bedroom with a full bathroom which is limited only by your imagination and could become a full ADU by expanding into the garage. THE YARD is the best of both worlds with a huge back “field” with unlimited opportunity and a terrific “tamed” area with phenomenal hardscape and plantings to spend hours enjoying the splendor of peacefulness. This home boasts a terrific Walnut Heights location with easy access to downtown, local parks and swim clubs, bart and freeways. This is ONE OF A KIND, no kidding.
