A walkway winds through a vibrant green lawn on its way up to this original 1941 California bungalow in the historic Tower District neighborhood of Fresno. Lovingly preserved for 85 years and on the market for just the second time in its history, it stands today as a beautiful embodiment of 20th century craftsmanship. Aside from a four-year-old roof, new paint, new carpet, and a new AC, all features date back to the original design, yet remain in well-kept condition. Peel back the carpet to reveal lustrous hardwood beneath. Living room windows give light and frame impressions of a neighborhood dripping with classic California charm. After sunset, sidle up close to a crackling fireplace as its low velvet glow casts moving shadows on the plaster walls and accentuates the curvature of the coved ceilings above. Wind down in a steaming hot shower with rosy pastel tiles and a rounded arch enclosing the alcove. This property has excellent insulation, which is a rarity in older homes. A detached structure features a brick fireplace and suggests ADU potential. The garage also has an additional 200-square-foot room with water hookups. Embrace stewardship of California's rich past with this home that displays the best of an earlier era while inviting new possibilities in the years to come.
