[ SOLD for $429,900 on 3/12/2019 ] Perched slightly higher than the street, yet on a level yard, this custom-built 1953 Wood Streets home boasts two fireplaces, two large bedrooms, and two bathrooms. At just under 1900 sq ft, this spacious yet amazingly cozy mid-century home has many features such as central air/heat, built-ins, central vacuum, lots of closet space, pocket doors, pool-size backyard, and clay tile roof.
The knotty pine kitchen boasts Corian counter tops, Bosch dishwasher, built-in microwave, and pantry. Formal living room with large window seat and wood-burning fireplace, and gigantic family room with gas fireplace and built-in shelving, media center, two built-in desks, and floor-to-ceiling sliders overlooking the backyard which brings in so much natural light.
There is high-end wool carpeting in the living room and bedrooms which can be dyed to match your decor, and hardwood flooring in family room and kitchen. Large master bedroom suite with French doors leading to the backyard and private attached bathroom.
The yard is 8,276 sq ft (.19/acre) and backyard once had an above-ground pool, and currently has a large deck which is perfect for entertaining. The detached 2-car garage is behind a wrought-iron driveway gate, with roll-up door and separate laundry room.
The whole exterior of the home, including the deck, was just painted. Narrow driveway leads to wider parking and detached garage. Walking distance to Central Middle School, Riverside Community Hospital, doctor’s offices, RCC, and shopping, as well as nearby Bonaminio Park, hiking Mt. Rubidoux, and bicycling the Santa Ana river trails. Great location in fantastic neighborhood!
