Description:

Bay View Cottage – perched atop a small rise and embraced by a backdrop of welcome shade trees, this irrepressibly happy bungalow beckons you to take a closer look. Take a moment to admire the classic architectural detail before you enter the Florida room and begin your exploration. Two walls of awning windows (perfect for our climate) bring the natural light inside this comfortable sitting room. Next up a small sunlit office tucked between Florida and living rooms features 4 vintage windows.

A series of three arched double doorways connect living, dining and kitchen making an easy flow for daily life and entertaining. This surprisingly open concept blends all types of uses – homework, board games, movie night, cocktails, breakfast, lunch and dinner parties are all a seamless fit of beautiful form and easy function. Owners are old house lovers and it shows in every carefully considered detail of their extensive renovation. The kitchen will inspire your culinary muse with ample work space to flex your cooking muscle. Half bath/laundry room are just past the hand-hewn antique breakfast bar which looks out to back yard. Master suite is off the dining room and includes bedroom, new bathroom with a clean and simple style offering walk-in shower and 2 pedestal sinks and the smaller bedroom is used as walk-in closet.

2nd floor offers small study area with built-in work station, flex area plus 2 bedrooms under the eaves. Upstairs bathroom is clad in Carrera marble. Kitchen opens to 26′ x 10′ raised deck with smaller section for grilling and cleaning up in an antique porcelain sink.

Detached garage is used for storage along with adjacent shed and horizontal wood fence makes the whole backyard deliciously private. There’s room for a vegetable and herb garden, water feature or just a lot of space for outdoor fun. This favorite neighborhood has playground, community garden and lending library. 5 minutes takes you to the best coffee/wine bar and 20 will get you downtown. Nice!
