Beautiful Craftsman in Maple Ridge with many vintage features – lovingly cared for by same family for 45 years. Awesome covered porch. Central heat present, so duct work in place; no central air. Portion of basement finished. Priced to reflect needed upgrades. Awaiting your restoration.
Many, many fun hours have been spent on this porch that spans the entire width of the home. Present are original hooks used for sleeping hammocks – used many years ago. This home was built in 1916.
Front door opens to the formal living to the right and formal dining to the left. The fireplace gas valve was capped off, but could easily be re-opened. High ceilings, massive crown molding and baseboards are indicative of the era built.
The kitchen has many original features including the marble counters and ceiling-height cabinets.
The den was probably remodeled in the 1950s and boasts beautiful mahogany paneling and doors. And the beautiful windows overlooking the back yard. Towards the back of the den are the stairs leading to the 2nd story – and a separate room for the washer and dryer.
Downstairs are two bedrooms and one full bath.
Upstairs are 2 bedroom – the smaller bedroom includes a half-bath.
There is also a large room of finished attic space that could be a bedroom, hobby room – or perhaps renovated to be a huge master closet! Possibilities are endless!
NOT SHOWN are photos of the partially finished basement to which there are two access points from within the home.
The back yard is full of mature trees and landscaped nicely. In the back corner of the yard is a patio used by the family often.
The detached 2-car garage does actually have a 2-car door installed. Because it was not used in which to park cars, a facade with windows was built in front. It also includes a separate enclosed storage or potting area in the back.
Other home details: Central heat refurbished 2012. Garage put on its own breaker box 2000. Electrical in house updated and new electrical box installed 2002. Some older wiring in house. No central air. Roof approximately 3 years.
