MLS#: 08-287257 We were intrigued with this 3/2, 1443 sq.ft. house with the outdoor area and plethora of trees. It was built in the 1930s as a 2-bedroom, and somewhere along the way, someone stuck a bed into the den and it was "converted" into a 3-bedroom.


This third bedroom is now the master. However, there is no master bath or any closets! But, there is a fireplace, which makes me believe this used to be the sitting room/den back when it was a 2-bedroom weekend wooden shack.




The kitchen is straight out of Main Street Disneyland. To do laundry, you're going to step outdoors to the left of the eating table, under a dirty awning.


The living room was nice and filled with light.








The side/back outdoor area would be absolutely stunning with the right landscaping.







The two bathrooms...ugh...they both can only be entered from bedrooms. One is BRIGHT RED! with a teeny tiny sink and an impractical bathtub. The other has only a shower (no tub) and no shower curtain.





Overall, we liked the house, but think it's terribly overpriced. We're look forward to seeing where the price goes from here. Curiously, there is a 3/2 house across the street, with more sq. footage, for $144,000 LESS than this house (listed at $845,000).
