1127 N Sacramento Ave.

A gorgeous, fully-intact, classic limestone facade stands proudly on a 63 foot wide and extra deep lot. Built by a wine importer in 1887, this home still exudes the unique pedigree it was originally built with. Located on a quiet inner-boulevard that overlooks 200+ acre Humboldt Park; it's clear why the owners chose this site 150 years ago, and it still retains the same protected beauty today. Originally a 2-flat, the home was recently converted into a single family home, retaining many high quality elements of the original build: old growth floors, ornate window sills and trim, rounded cove ceiling moldings, and pocket doors. All of this, while still being mindful of how people today live: large bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, a thoughtful mix of public and private spaces, abundant storage, and a huge finished basement for play and relaxation. The finished product is a 6,000+ square foot home that doesn't feel intimidatingly large. Officially 4 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms, adding bedrooms 5, 6 and 7 would be easily accomplished. The kitchen, centrally located in an old dining room with a large bay window, is open and bright. Utilizing built-in storage solutions and a massive island, the kitchen features no wall mounted cabinets and achieves an open and sophisticated aesthetic. The kitchen was recently used to shoot a commercial cooking campaign. The rooms of the home are graceful and comfortable, delineated with pocket doors you can open and close the living areas depending on your needs. A large office on the first floor provides privacy, and a family room that opens up to the back yard makes outdoor entertaining a breeze. A separate rear entry opens directly into a mud room for easy access. With a 63 foot wide lot and both neighbors on oversized sites you will enjoy the amount of natural light typically only reserved for your suburban friends. To experience sunrise and sunset views in an urban setting is special. With a private curb cut, a gated driveway running along the north side of the home and 4 garage stalls, there is abundant parking. The yard is large and fully gated, great for kids to play and pets to roam freely. There is a beautiful brick wall at the rear property line which creates a private outdoor space. R5 zoning allows the numerous future iterations of guest houses, ADU's etc... The infrastructure and systems have all been updated: 400 Amp electrical service, a large solar array on the roof, new water service, in-floor radiant heat in the basement, and 2 high end forced air mechanical systems. They all work together to create a comfortable and efficient living environment. Walk to fun restaurants, bars, and shops like Hi-Lo, Adam's & Sons Nursery, Spinning J's, and The California Clipper, there is a lot going on within just a few blocks.
