Whether you have deep roots here already or are hoping to sprout a new life, you'll find this classic, mid-Westside home ideal! The neighborhood is rooted in the 50s when homes were solid, practical & unpretentious. It's where relatives & friends feasted on fried artichokes & abalone out-back, and youngsters had Brussels sprout fights and raced down Miramar on home-made skateboards. Nat King Cole, Italian opera or Che sar sar crooned from the record player as the sun streamed across beautiful wood floors-It still does! A sensible kitchen accommodates both fancy & simple fare to enjoy at the kitchen or dining room tables depending on the occasion. 3 bedrooms, one bath would have been typical then but a 2nd bath at the top of the stairs keeps the days mud and dirty clothes from tracking through this tidy home. Its the lower level where the messier fun is to be had; a 2-car gar, truck-sized driveway, patio, yard AND 22x13 wkshop/gym/bike rm/media cave that's sure to inspire!

This graceful home sits above the bustles of Town and enjoys expansive views of the SC Mountains. It was built in an earlier period of promise and prosperity. When Americans followed dreams westward, plied boundless ingenuity and optimism, and built new lives in fine neighborhoods on the outskirts of booming towns. Surely such dreams and opportunities are as timeless as this quintessentially Californian home! Its stucco facade, hipped tile roof, terrace entrance and symmetrical palms are indigenous elements. Generous windows invite sunlight and humans to linger in beautifully proportioned living and dining rooms. Curves & arches grace doors, ceilings, fireplace & built-ins. Handsome wood floors are prominent and striking but don't miss the classic doors, fixtures, stove, farmhouse sink & tidy basement. A 264 sq ft bonus room & 1-car garage add modern-day flex space. Irrigated grounds & fruit trees delight. And the tidiest of courtyards invites sunning, soaking or sitting by the fire.

She enjoys expansive views of our city's lights & the distant Monterey Bay, sunny & tidy grounds, fruit trees, garden beds, long-time neighbors and gated privacy. A detached 1.5 car garage and nimble (but not rentable) 2nd story studio-space provide harmonious companionship. Because of her proximity to town, and to the innovative campuses over the Hill, she doesn't feel isolated or distant. Over the years, her inhabitants have reverentially tended & preserved her beautiful wood floors, coved ceilings, picture rails and classic moldings. And their lavish embellishments and newfangled fixtures (like appliances, cabinets, counters, wiring, fireplace, furnace, foundation bolts, roofing, windows and more) will be her lease on many graceful and happy decades to come.

Adorable and bright Seabright Bungalow. Diminutive and tidy, practical and proximate, updated but not pretentious - so it'll be fun to make it yours. A green thumb will dig this especially peaceful garden; a dog, the yard-space and shade. A brilliant Bougainvillea brightens a wonderfully private patio. There's a Great Room, great gear storage and many great local shops, eateries and venues nearby. Pull your boards or bikes out and paddle or pedal our awesome Coast. Live like you're on vacation every single day!
