This 3 bed/1 bath Spanish Mediterranean delights with its original wrought-iron light fixtures, arched picture window, and red tile roof. Sip coffee in the sweet breakfast nook with built-in cabinet or entertain in the formal dining room. Enjoy the freshly-painted interior, refinished hardwood floors, primary bedroom skylight, and bank of windows in the third bedroom. The back deck offers a tranquil respite under the canopy of a graceful oak tree. First time on the market in 48 years, this home is ready for your vision and upgrades.
