About this Property
Looking for a project with an incredible payoff? This 1920s Craftsman, on the market for the first time in 54 years, is a rare find in the historic Orange Heights neighborhood. This home is a complete fixer-upper and a blank canvas for a visionary buyer. While it needs a top-to-bottom renovation, its original soul is intact, offering a truly unique opportunity to restore a piece of history. This property may qualify for the Mills Act, which could provide a massive property tax reduction, making this a smart long-term investment. The home retains many of its original features, including stained-glass windows, Batchelder tile fireplace, and intricate built-in cabinets with leaded-glass fronts. The hardwood floors, sanded only twice in over five decades, are ready to be stripped and brought back to life. The kitchen requires a full gut and remodel, and the entire home is a blank slate. The floor plan includes a main-level living room, a formal dining room, one bedroom, and a full bath. A sunroom offers a small retreat, and a half basement provides extra storage. Upstairs, there are three bedrooms and a full bath, with the potential to convert the space back into a large primary suite. The oversized lot includes a private yard with a large pool, perfect for entertaining.
