Colorful Cozy and oh so Cool ~ Dashing 1924 Craftsman Duplex AKA Great Investment!Thirteen years ago two first time homebuyers held their breaths and took a pass on the tempting passive income that a duplex can generate. Instead they opted to live in the entire structure. Since then The family has enjoyed every inch of the 1700 square feet plus two beautiful Batchelder fireplaces, two baths, a large office/ recording studio (formerly the living room of one side) and an extra kitchen that serves as a crafts and laundry room. This arrangement has been perfect for them. Perhaps the owners-to-be will want to follow suit or live in one side and rent out the other or rent both sides. The Renovations of the present owners have been stylish, exciting, but fastidious in respecting the home’s vintage roots. It has all the classy character of 1920 homes; Big buff built ins, the aforementioned fireplaces, Many double hung windows. Solid wood doors with original knobs and high ceilings and hardwood floors. Plus It has one feature not usually found in a home its age - sizable closets! Oh Yum!The working kitchen comes with breakfast nook, quartz countertops and a very handsome imported Italian stove branded Hallman. It is rumored to turn out superior pizza.This is a site for eyes sore with the ubiquitous grey/beige palettes that seem to dominate these days. Colorful jazzy wallpaper covers the two freshly updated bathrooms walls and the rest of the interior is coated in vivid splashes and flashes of color. Think Matisse meets Martha.In the large kid and pet friendly backyard there’s a possible pot of gold. The 400 sq ft two-car garage is a highly likely candidate for an ADU, if you choose. It hasn’t been all paint swatches and roses, the owners have tended to nuts and bolts and high ticket items: two Frigidaire HVAC Units, AO Smith/Takagi tankless water heater, Bosch dishwater, Maytag washer and dryer and irrigation drip system. This sparkly gem is located in Glassell Park, which is now the new Highland Park, which was once the new Eagle Rock, in other words Glassell is happening - enthusiasm and caffeine fill the air. - the best part of a neighborhood waking up are the coffee bars, like The Habitat coffee or the Little Barn. It’s all here. There’s even a swanky new bar called the Grant. Cheers! Don’t miss this candy colored home. Buyers responsible for checking any and all permits. No warranties expressed or implied.
