Property Description

Vintage Cottage Charm in the Heart of Santa Rosa. Step into the warmth of a lovingly preserved 1940 cottage nestled in the sought-after Santa Rosa Junior College neighborhood. This 2-bedroom, 1-bath home blends vintage character with thoughtful modern updates including a renovated bathroom, newer hardwood floors in the primary bedroom, and a private concrete patio perfect for outdoor living. The lush grounds are graced by a majestic mature beech and Douglas fir tree, while an ever-changing tapestry of seasonal blooms and flowering plants brings color and life to the garden throughout the year. And when you're ready to venture out, everything you need is just a 15-20 minute walk away from the green open spaces of Franklin Park to the beloved aisles of Community Market and Pacific Market, and local favorites like Goji Kitchen, Willi's Wine Bar, and Santa Rosa Taqueria just around the corner. All of this on a generous 5,500 sq ft lot, with 970 sq ft of cozy, move-in ready living space plus a detached 240 sq ft garage perfect for covered parking, a workshop, studio, or additional storage. A rare find with the soul of a bygone era and the comfort of today.
