For the first time since 1966, this expanded, tree-shaded family home is ready for its next caretakers. With a whopping 2,151 sq. ft., this home offers a variety of living scenarios, depending on your needs. Currently set up as a 4 bed/2 bath with attached 1 bed/1 bath “Granny unit”, it’s perfect for multi-generational living or with great income-producing options. A large post and beam family/dining room has been added to the rear of the home, along with an adjacent sun room. There’s also an oversized 2+ car attached garage and plenty of off-street parking. The massive pine tree in the front yard is a famous feature of the neighborhood. It shades one entire side of the home and offers a stunning canopy over the spacious side yard. A huge covered porch frames the front of the home; a perfect spot for relaxing and watching the world go by. The jewel of the neighborhood is Canyon Park, just a short walk away, which offers miles of trails and acres of meadows, and connections to the SA River Trail to the beach, and one day to Randall Preserve in between. After 58 years of being the center of family gatherings and making memories, this home is ready for its next neighborhood legacy.
