Description

Built in 1907, the Barnhart House is a historic Arts and Crafts gem continuously and lovingly renovated since 2010 to maximize its original beauty while ensuring modern comfort. The recipient of the 2011 PACA Heritage Restoration Award, 209 W. California Ave is also eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. The vintage city brick paver path leads you to the covered front porch complete with swing. Once inside you'll fall in love with the character and charm each room has to offer, from the hexagon tiled foyer to the intricate oak woodwork, ornate original cover on the wood-burning fireplace, and square baluster staircase railing. Flooded with natural sunlight, the spacious dining room leads you out to the gorgeous deck perfect for entertaining overlooking an established yard with raised beds, lilacs, roses, hostas, rhododendrons, birch, and crab apple trees. The kitchen has abundant cabinetry, granite countertops, farmhouse sink, Brizo faucets, and room for dining. Kohler vintage style fixtures adorn the first-floor powder room. A mini pantry with additional storage leads to the back porch. The second-floor highlights 4 bedrooms, each with unique design features including windows in each closet. Tastefully updated full bath with Carrara marble topped dual vanity. Full basement with high ceilings has great potential for a workshop, exercise room, storage, and more. In the backyard you'll find your dream getaway-this custom-built study constructed in 2016 with a full bath is a home away from home; vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, and vintage details perfectly match the main house. The garage door opens to additional storage for bikes and garden tools. This home has been pre-inspected for your convenience. A list of over $250K in improvements is available upon request.
