Description
Perfect starter home in coveted Elysian Heights. Tucked into a quiet hillside with views to the north and south, this classic 1912 bungalow offers a rare opportunity to reimagine a piece of the neighborhood's early charm. A welcoming front porch invites slow mornings with coffee or relaxed evenings with a glass of wine, as owls call from the canyon and hawks ride the thermals above Kite Hill. The home has been recently painted inside and out, and the wood floors beautifully refinished. Enter directly into the living room, anchored by a whimsical decorative fireplace, and continue into the kitchen, a generous space awaiting your vision. The primary bedroom is unusually large and may have originally been 2 bedrooms at an earlier time. A "second bedroom" is tandem, and more akin to a sleeping porch or study, offering a peaceful spot to take in the soft northern light and mountain vistas. The lower level, accessed from the backyard, is a perfect project room or workshop. And, the yard itself has both a gated dog-friendly area and an inviting space to entertain. Beyond, the wooded lot descends to Donaldson and presents a dream canvas for landscaping, with ample space to imagine the addition of an ADU. Avon Terrace is an opportunity to shape something truly your own in one of Elysian Heights' most beloved hillside enclaves.
