First time on the market in 30 years and worth the wait! A rare, head-turning mid-century modern gem, thoughtfully reimagined for contemporary living. A complete design refresh honors the home's Eichler-style roots while delivering the clean lines, natural materials, and an open flow that today's buyers crave. Inside, you're greeted by imported European oak hardwoods, open beam ceilings, and light pouring through walls of glass in the great room. The open layout easily fits a large dining table and a comfortable living room setup, perfect for laid-back living or entertaining. Step out to a private backyard retreat, shaded by mature trees. The remodeled kitchen features quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, sleek cabinetry, and a breakfast bar, connected to a smart mudroom/laundry combo. Two renovated bathrooms evoke a boutique hotel feel, and the primary suite offers a coveted indoor-outdoor experience. Upgrades include a mini split HVAC, a new roof (2022), 200 AMP service, fresh interior/exterior paint, and a finished 2-car garage with an epoxy floor. A new concrete driveway, walkways, and front patio boost curb appeal. Lemon and loquat trees. Steps to Mitchell Park and Library, Magical Bridge Playground, Piazza's Fine Foods, restaurants, shops and top-rated schools.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
