This home, built in 1916, has a special charm. It is a craftsman-style bungalow with water views, a 40x50' garden, a front porch for watching the sunset over Ash Creek and a fire place in the den to take the chill off those winter nights. The owners have added their touch to the house by renovating the kitchen to meet today's standards: Legacy cabinets, twin Jenn-Air ovens, a five-burner Dacor stove top, LG fridge and dishwasher make the space friendly to the experienced chef and newcomer alike. The work space is sixteen linear feet of Pietra di Cardosa countertop and five feet of butcher-block rounded out by the addition of home office space with plenty of storage. The home has a new roof on the main house and garage and both have been recently painted. The new oil furnace provides even, cozy warmth through a combination of radiant/baseboard heat. The rear porch is heated and acts as a green-house during the winter months. Windows are thermal pane throughout, floors are hardwood and the original built-in cabinets have been maintained to preserve the authenticity of this period home. Notable is the garden area developed by the owners and maintained organically since its creation ten years ago. It features a dining patio, raised beds, a 3-tree apple orchard and, at 40 by 50 feet, all the space required to feed friends. Unique to a neighborhood with building lots in the eighth-to-quarter acre range, this garden took first honors in the 2005 neighborhood showdown sponsored by the Black Rock News.
