That homes tend to reflect their owners is certainly true here: Matt and Michele are smart, understated, and committed to authentic character. They have sought to diligently preserve this pristine two-story example of residential Eagle Rock architecture from 1927.

The large formal living room has a smooth barrel ceiling, the original picture window, and the thin plank hardwood flooring of its era. The elevated formal dining room enjoys those same wood floors and great natural light from its original wood windows. The bright kitchen has been tastefully updated with wood cabinetry, newer appliances, and a great garden window while preserving the bumble bee hexagonal tile counter tops.

Upstairs there are two large bedrooms, a full bath, and a private reading alcove. The master suite is quite spacious and has a wonderful surprise – a large master balcony overlooking the gorgeous rear grounds. The rear yard feels like a creative sanctuary with great contemplative ambiance, pampered gardens, outdoor dining areas, and a very cool rock spa. A few additional features include: central air and heating, updated copper plumbing, a laundry room and second bath, and a detached garage.
