Step back into time in this enchanting French Normandy style home located in Modesto's sought after Graceda Park neighborhood! This property was featured in the Modesto Bee's Enchanting Cottages news article as well as the book, Great Architecture in San Francisco and Northern California. It was given the name The Castle. Built in 1928 it is made of brick, stucco and wood from the old train bridge in Escalon. Some of the massive pieces of rough-hewn lumber can be seen in the living room's high ceiling, around the windows and above the corner fireplace which, coincidentally, is a replica of what one can expect to find in a Scottish castle. The home actually has four levels with a total square feet of 2360. This home exudes history and charm with metal stair railings, brick and concrete flooring, original metal frame windows, indoor water garden, and turret shaped dining room and bedroom. It is not only one of a kind but also a piece of history here in Modesto and Northern California! Available for sale for the first time in over 50 years!
