“The view from the front window is one of my favorite views anywhere. My mother especially appreciated this in her old age as the sofa was positioned parallel to the fireplace, and she could lie on it facing the window, watching life flow by outside. All day long, you can see neighbors strolling by, walking dogs or kids in strollers. In the oaks and along the fence, you can observe the antics of squirrels and watch many species of birds flitting about in the oaks. It’s quite an entertaining view!”
Nestled amidst beautiful heritage oak trees on a beloved street in the special North Fair Oaks Neighborhood, this wonderful home has been enjoyed by the same family for 67 years.
The streets are filled with stately trees, creating a magical place to live, play, and thrive. Neighbors are out and about, walking with dogs and strollers, enjoying their community, and socializing with each other.
This well-loved home has a great feel and lends itself well to socializing, entertaining, and enjoying day-to-day life as a family, such as Sunday family dinners, barbeques for friends and extended family, holidays, and birthdays. The living room is bright and welcoming, with beautifully refinished hardwood flooring, a fireplace, and a large window overlooking the front yard and spectacular oak trees.
The remodeled kitchen, with stainless steel appliances and a soothing color scheme, looks out onto a beautiful redwood deck and Cedar tree. Sliding doors from the dining area lead out to the deck for easy entertaining, socializing, and al fresco dining under the stars and the gorgeous surrounding trees.
Three well-appointed bedrooms are located in the rear. Two are serviced by a remodeled hall bathroom, and the primary ensuite is situated in the rear for privacy.
The large family room, with a dining area and sliding doors accessing the redwood deck and rear yard, is a fabulous space for enjoying family time, holidays, birthdays, and gatherings with extended family and friends.
