This secure, quiet, private and pet-friendly home comprises most (940 ft2) of a one-level mid-century (1225 Ft2) ranch house. Located 1 mile from the beach with shaded patios and coyote-proof front (shared) and back & side (private) yards, this home invites outdoor living. There is an open floor plan with hardwood floors, a spacious custom kitchen, a sliding door from the dining room to a private patio, and vaulted ceilings with ceiling fans in each room. The kitchen cabinets reach to the ceiling with "Lazy Susans" built into the corners, and heavy-duty drawer slides in the bottom cabinets. The direct-access attached garage has parking for one car, and a second car can park in the driveway. The garage has built-in storage cabinets and a workbench, plus a shared laundry with deep sink and ironing setup. Generous inside storage includes both a coat closet and a linen-storage closet in the hallway. The bathroom includes a large walk-in shower with optional extra-large handicap shower chair, an extra-large stainless steel sink with adjustable shelf rack, a bidet, and lots of storage. All closets have inside lighting. The smaller bedroom includes an optional loft bed (above the closet below the cathedral ceiling). Grow your own flowers & vegetables in trellised garden pots (7 @24") in a private side yard. Lounge in the shaded common area front patio on Jordan brand rocking chairs in front of a cast-iron cherimoya, and watch bees and butterflies tend to an organic garden. Fairview Park is 3 short blocks north, and Vista Park is 2 long blocks south. Multiple grocery stores, restaurants and other helpful services are within easy walking distance. The house was built in 1956 with 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms then (as shown in the photo of floor plan) remodeled in 1987, to join two rooms at the back of the house with a separate entrance. Sound insulation was added behind a hallway dividing door to minimize sound transfer. The two sections of structure now share nothing except airflow if-when the HVAC climate control thermostat is operating. The back yard is divided for privacy and pet containment. SHARED LAUNDRY The attached garage is accessible through the main room. The home is perfect for pets. Depending on a demonstrated history of high standards for pet care & cleanup, the lease may be negotiated to allow pets.
