Located in the desirable Lindaraxa park neighborhood, this lovingly maintained and expanded Spanish revival is on the market for the 1st time since 1978! The home has fresh interior and exterior paint and is full of character and custom details. The beautifully landscaped front yard welcomes one to the eclectic Spanish archways of the front covered porch. As the handsome front door opens, one is greeted by the newly refinished parquet flooring that sprawls throughout the public rooms. The light filled living room is adorned with 2 etched leaded window panes and a picturesque window of the front yard. Connecting via an archway is the inviting “great room” with a stately fireplace and an adjoining dining area anchored by a new chandelier. To the left is a full bath containing retro black accent tile work and arched tub shower. Adjacent is a sunny bedroom with view of the front yard and another etched lead window panes. This room features gleaming refinished wood floors and is perfectly situated as a home office or guest suite. The East half of the home was expanded in 1990 as the new sleeping quarters. A second full bath with a skylight is centrally located off the hall servicing bedroom 2 and 3.

A pair of french doors lead to the huge, luxurious primary suite boasting sunlight through double etched leaded window panes and a window overlooking the private backyard. Newer LVP flooring and a sparkling chandelier adorn this sanctuary. The suite has a spacious custom walk-in closet and an ensuite bath with matching sinks and step-up jacuzzi tub shower. Back in the heart of the home is the efficient U shaped kitchen with a charming garden window and plenty of storage spaces. The breakfast bar is perfect for snacks and opposite of the counter is an extra large washer/dryer closet with accordion doors. The vestibule showcases a pair of french doors that open to the exterior of the home and the long cement gated driveway. There is a detached 2-car garage with a newer door with an auto opener.
