Artisanal Craftsman home in the heart of the Elmwood District! Greeted by a welcoming front porch, step into this 2+ bedroom, 1.5 bathroom gem that exudes old-world charm with modern comfort. It features a kitchen with elegant Pietra Cardosa countertops and a classic swinging door, a sunny living room with custom shelving by the cozy fireplace, and a formal dining room with built-ins. Upstairs, you'll find two sizeable bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a versatile bonus room-ideal as a home office, creative space, or a cozy retreat. Hardwood floors throughout the home have been recently refinished.  And there is a secret garden out back! Discover a lush, landscaped backyard with mature lime and persimmon trees, raised garden beds, a meandering stone path, and a grand Desert King fig tree bursting with ripe figs surrounding the outdoor seating areas.  The home has been thoughtfully updated with code-compliant wiring (no knob & tube!), a sump pump, efficient Mitsubishi heat pumps, and boasts a perfect 10/10 BESO score.   Conveniently located just blocks from Whole Foods, shops and cafes, this home offers easy access to the University, Ashby BART, and neighborhood parks like Willard and Bushrod. Don't miss the chance to see it in person- join us at our Open Houses this weekend!
