Built in 1913, this California bungalow with Craftsman details is ready for its next chapter, with extensive improvements and a fresh look that deserves a second glance. A covered front porch with river-rock accents sets the scene for morning coffee, evening conversations, and the occasional enthusiastic wave to a neighbor. Inside, approximately 1,200 square feet offers three bedrooms and two bathrooms, refreshed with new luxury vinyl flooring, interior paint, updated lighting, and new kitchen and bathroom countertops. Living and dining spaces invite you to settle in, spread out, and finally find the right spot for that favorite piece of furniture. The work goes well beyond the finishing touches. Seller-reported improvements include whole-house copper repiping, partial drainpipe replacement, seismic retrofit work, crawlspace framing and pier/footing repairs, replacement of the dining room beam, termite tenting, and new attic insulation. Fresh exterior paint, select replacement windows, and additional completed repairs round out the homes thoughtful refresh. Set on an approximately 6,555-square-foot corner lot with mature trees, the outdoor space offers room to bring your own garden inspiration and personal touches. Close to downtown La Vernes shopping and dining, with the foothills nearby, the location makes it easy to enjoy a change of scenery or let someone else handle dinner. More than a century of character, a substantial investment in improvements, and a fresh start waiting for its next homeowner. Your next chapter could begin right here.
