This 2-car detached garage is finished on the outside like a cottage, with cedar shake shingles, and the on the inside there are gorgeous massive old wood beams. It can easily be converted to an external office, or creative space with front French Doors, and a walk up dormer roof line. We did this with a home in Portland Oregon and it truly expanded the property.
Enter from the front door into the living room The deep stone walls make for very stunning and unique windows and light, and the classic external foundation stone is integrated into the fireplace hearth.
From the living room walk into the formal dining room.
The Sunroom is where we start our mornings throughout the year. In Spring and Fall it is a lovely sleeping room.
In winter the cast iron natural gas fireplace makes for a cozy gathering room throughout the Holidays and winter.
The kitchen is bright and leads to the basement.
The kitchen also extends to this additional room/Butler's Pantry where you can do food prep, and hand food and drinks through the window into the glass room. As well there is a bathroom and a door leading out to the backyard, grill, and garage.
The finished front porch can serve as a den, study, guest bedroom, TV room, or home office. If you work from home and have kids you can literally watch them come out of the school at the end of the day, or in the case of this week, we are watching soaked golf fans walk by on their way home from the US Open.
The basement has four windows, and it's own external entrance, which is great for having friends over. It also has a large sink which is super cool for cleaning up kids paint and craft projects. As well last winter we just converted from oil to a high-efficiency Buderus furnace. (it is a pretty great company you can check them out here: Buderus The house also has a Central Air system.
Upstairs you'll find the 3 main bedrooms and bath.
Both of these bedrooms have a window on both of the exterior walls, which creates amazing morning light!
The Master Bed room is large (21'x11') and has for windows which flood the room with natural light. As well this is a great room to see the beauty of the historic coastal pine wood floors.
This truly is a fantastic neighborhood, with many great neighbors, families, and artists, mixed in with many wonderful legacy pillars of the neighborhood who are eager to share stories of the Italian and Irish immigrant heritage in the area. As you walk you find many great gardens and gardeners, and several of the houses, including this one, still have the foundations for a wine press intact.
I will be updating the site soon with more about the neighborhood and the surrounding area.
