Located in Riverside's Historic Wood Streets, this 1,159 square foot, 3 bedroom, 2 bath Craftsman bungalow pairs the character you can't recreate with the updates buyers are looking for today. A brick paver walkway leads past drought tolerant landscaping and an automatic wrought iron gate to the covered front porch, framed by the home's original craftsman trim and brick chimney. Inside, real wood floors run through the living and dining rooms, where a tiled fireplace and the home's original built-in cabinetry set the tone. French doors and a wall of windows keep the space bright, and the dining room's built-in hutch adds the kind of detail you don't find in new construction. The third bedroom includes a built-in Murphy bed, giving the room flexible use as a guest space, office, or den. The Chef's Kitchen has been completely remodeled with custom cabinetry, granite counters, a farmhouse sink, recessed lighting, and a stainless appliance suite that includes a built-in double oven and electric cooktop set against a herringbone tile backsplash. The jack and jill bathroom between two of the bedrooms has been fully renovated with a new vanity and a tiled walk-in shower, and a second full bathroom serves the rest of the home. Indoor laundry adds everyday convenience. Out back, the 9,148 square foot lot (0.21 acres) is set up for real outdoor living: Cedar Pergola wired with electricity and a mounted TV, a tiled fire pit, a porch swing, more than 20 producing fruit trees and plants, and three sheds for storage. A Tesla EV charger and a separate 220 volt outlet are already installed
