4707 Brentwood Ave., Riverside
[ SOLD for $250,000 — 7/31/2012 ] This “Wood Streets” mid-century home has been lovingly maintained since 1957, when it was built in all its glory at the corner of Brentwood Avenue and Edgewood Place. With 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and 1400 sq ft of living space, this home sits upon a corner lot that is over 9,000 sq ft (.21/acre).
Once inside, there’s almost a feeling of still being outside due to so many windows that allow the light to delicately intrude. Or close the blinds for privacy. Either way, you will feel right at home with the comfort of a well-built home with modern conveniences of a completely remodeled kitchen with gas cook top, Corian counter tops, built-in oven and microwave, dishwasher, pantry, and breakfast bar. Central air/heat is also a welcome addition. There’s also a dining room with sliding glass door overlooking the covered patio and expansive park-like backyard.
This lovely home also boasts a separate laundry room off the kitchen which can be closed off with the hidden pocket door. The 3 bedrooms are all decent size with ample closet space; the master bedroom has an attached remodeled bathroom! There aren’t too many homes in the “Wood Streets” with a master bedroom ensuite.
Now it’s time to step outside and take advantage of the private backyard almost completely surrounded with a block wall. Two patios, room for a pool, citrus trees, a hidden shed in the back corner, and lovely landscaping. Don’t forget to walk around the side of the house to see the lovely arbors.
Brentwood Avenue is a lovely tree-lined street that is reminiscent of New England with the canopy of trees that offer shade and beauty pretty much year ’round!
This is a STANDARD (equity) sale — no bank to deal with!
