Discover this impeccably updated 1920s Craftsman bungalow located in Santa Rosa's desirable JC area, a residence that masterfully integrates historic charm with modern structural integrity. This 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home features classic architectural details including a welcoming covered porch, hardwood flooring, decorative trim, and elegant bay windows that flood the spacious living and dining areas with natural light. The interior is anchored by an attractive fireplace with a gas insert and a gourmet kitchen equipped with granite countertops, raised-panel maple cabinetry, and a versatile informal dining nook. A major 1995 expansion introduced a luxurious upstairs primary suite complete with French doors and a spa-like bathroom featuring a soaking tub and an oversized travertine marble shower. Beyond the aesthetic appeal, this home offers the practical "big ticket" updates often missing in vintage properties: a new roof (November 2025), a full-perimeter concrete foundation, updated plumbing and electrical systems, recessed lighting, and dual-pane windows throughout for energy efficiency. The exterior is equally impressive, situated on a deep lot with lovely landscaping, flagstone pathways, fruit trees, and a detached two-car garage with an attached workshop or storage structure. Whether you are searching for a move-in-ready historic home in Sonoma County or a property with a highly livable layout and modern amenities, 735 Carr Ave represents the best of the Junior College neighborhood lifestyle.
