If you've been waiting for a historic Craftsman restoration opportunity in Bungalow Heaven, you may have just found it. First time on the market in over forty years, 892 N Chester Ave gives you the chance to preserve the original craftsmanship and character that are still here after more than a century. Make it your own, add modern comforts, and keep what makes it special. At first glance, framed by mature trees, your eyes are drawn to the home's quintessential Craftsman details: the broad, low-slung roofline, deep overhanging eaves and exposed rafters above the huge 300+ square feet front porch, brick piers, wood siding, shingle detailing at the gable, distinctive diamond-pattern wood windows, and the original Douglas fir front door. Step inside, and you'll find that the exterior is only the beginning. Even more of the home's best original details are waiting to be discovered. Inside, much of the home's original craftsmanship is still here: original oak floors, old-growth Douglas fir millwork and built-ins, the original letter desk, and a beautiful mahogany built-in buffet that could once again become the centerpiece of the dining room. Small stripped sections of old-growth Douglas fir and mahogany reveal the rich grain and warmth hidden beneath existing paint. Now imagine the personal touch and style you can bring to this contributing Craftsman. Within the existing roofline, you could create a custom open kitchen with an island and a primary suite with an ensuite bathroom and walk-in closet, bringing the home to two full bathrooms. Above the main living area, expansive attic space leaves plenty of room for imagination while basement below could become your wine cellar. At nearly five hundred square feet, garage gives you enough space for a gym, office or art studio. And there's still enough room in backyard to add a pool or a garden or both.But of course bringing that vision to life will take work. The home is being sold as-is and will need renovation including updates to major systems. That also gives you chance to restore it YOUR WAY rather than inherit someone else's choices.
