[ SOLD for $393,500 on 9/15/2017 ] Terrific corner lot location in the heart of the historic “Wood Streets” neighborhood … with a 4-car garage! This home was originally built as a 3-bedroom (tax records incorrectly state 2 bedrooms) with 1.5 bathrooms and has newer central air/heat, newer water heater, 6-mo-old dishwasher, 1-yr-old sewer line, 5-yr-old exterior paint, roof is 11 yrs old, newer alarm system, and 3-yr-old walk-in tub.
Pull the carpeting and expose the original hardwood flooring, and paint the paneling and you’ll bring this home into the 21st Century. Eat-in kitchen with lots of counter space and cabinetry and corner hutch, indoor laundry, covered breezeway between house and garage (keeps the house cooler), and a 2-car-deep and 2-car-wide garage (4 cars total).
The backyard isn’t huge (lot size is approx 7,000 sq ft), but it’s small enough for easy maintenance, yet still green and lush for kids or pets to romp around. Great location, walking distance to RCC and Central Middle School, as well as nearby shopping and proximity to all of Riverside’s nearby amenities such as Riverside Plaza, Bonaminio Park, Mt. Rubidoux, the Mission Inn Hotel & Spa, and the new and improved Fox Theatre in downtown Riverside.
