This Rare Gem Will Lift Your Spirits! Modern open design meets character in this 1999 home built around a 1912 cottage that was lifted, taken down to the studs, expanded, and placed on a new foundation and main floor. With 2400 sqft of bright open spaces over 2 levels, this live-work style home offers the perfect canvas for art lovers! A row of wood beams on polished concrete and heated tile floors welcome you on the main, drawing your eye from the front living room to the rear studio and den, through French doors onto a sheltered patio. Wooden stairs lead to the loft-style great room upstairs, bathed in natural light. Fir floors, ceilings vaulting to 13 ft in the family room, dining room and a central open kitchen made for entertaining, covered balcony to watch the world amble by. 3 generous-sized bedrooms, full bathroom with clawfoot tub. Beautiful San Jose ave is lined with character homes and architectural gems, you'll love walking to Dallas Road, the Inner Harbour and beyond!
