Special landmark offering in majestic Verdugo Woodlands. This impeccably preserved Craftsman, built in 1911 by Dora Verdugo is the arguable historic crown jewel of the neighborhood. Elegantly residing on a 17,000 square foot double lot, the two story home offers all that comes with Southern California living. Beside an ancient oak tree, a river rock front porch opens to a classic Craftsman floor plan that features light-filled spaces, vintage character, and inviting warmth throughout. Main living on the first floor centers around a spacious living room with granite fireplace, French doors, original windows, original wainscoting, original wood floors and all the period details valued by Craftsman aficionados. The south-facing sunlit kitchen overlooks the side garden and is accompanied by a perfectly utilitarian mudroom/laundry room/pantry. Downstairs you'll also find the expected formal dining room with built-ins and pocket doors, one high-ceilinged bedroom, a den and a classically updated full bathroom. Upstairs, two more bedrooms including the primary with custom built closets, a gorgeous full bath and access to the standing-room attic all with different garden views. The basement also impresses with approximately 954 additional square feet of living space bringing the total usable square footage to 2958. Outside, a gently cascading, double lot offers all the dream-like features you'd expect from a private estate: expansive areas for play and entertaining, sports court, covered outdoor patio, plant staging area, river-rock outdoor kitchen with fireplace and seating area, veggie gardens, winding pathways, cactus gardens, and a lower play/rest/hide area with no neighbor at the rear. As you stroll through the lush vegetation and mature trees in the yard it feels like one's own private and shady Descanso Gardens. The detached matching garage offers ample storage, a workspace, additional carport and plant staging area behind. The property is fully gated and moments from the best of Historic Old Town Montrose including the new highly reviewed restaurant Backbone, Montrose Farmer's Market and How's It Going To End Coffee.
