Since its construction in the mid 1930s this two storey, four square, cedar shake home has been extensively updated while retaining its historical integrity. Retention of the original Douglas Fir cabinets in both the bathroom and the pantry, trim & doors, and French doors that separate and enhance the living and dining rooms. The main floor features a kitchen, original pantry, dining room, large living room with decorative fireplace and foyer. Upstairs there are two guest bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a primary bedroom with an unobstructed view, a perfect place to relax. An unusual bonus in a house of this vintage is the availability of large closets in the front entry and in all three bedrooms. An extra walk-in closet/space (3 ft by 10 ft) is located between the bathroom and master bedroom. A sheltered deck off the back door permits year-round barbecuing; a small shed provides storage. Lilac trees and a rhubarb patch announce the arrival of summer. A paved drive makes winter snow removal easier.
