Nestled in the heart of Bostonia, this meticulously maintained original owner mid-century cottage sits on an expansive, flat 1/4 acre lot (11,300 sq. ft lot), offering a rare combination of charm, functionality, and future potential. A welcoming front porch overlooks a lush, manicured lawn framed by a stately shade tree, setting the stage for the warmth and character found within. Inside, the beautifully remodeled kitchen blends vintage allure and modern elegance, featuring a classic chrome-top O’Keefe & Merritt stove, sleek quartz countertops, and generous cabinetry. The open floor plan invites easy living, seamlessly connecting to the outdoors for year-round enjoyment. Step outside to discover a private backyard retreat designed for relaxation and entertainment, complete with a spacious wood deck, a 12×14 gazebo with solar lighting, a Kevlar-reinforced sunken above-ground pool, and new low-maintenance turf surrounded by mature fruit and shade trees. The expansive lot offers gated side access—ideal for RVs, boats, or off-road vehicles—and presents an excellent opportunity for a future guest house or ADU. Additional highlights include quality craftsmanship, central A/C, fresh interior and exterior paint, a two-car garage with built-in cabinetry, extra outbuildings, and an automated sprinkler system. Perfectly situated with walkable access to shops and dining, and just minutes from schools, parks, and freeways, this property is a rare find with timeless appeal and limitless possibilities.
