Property Description
On a sweeping corner lot in Chapman Woods, this classic ranch-style fixer offers a rare opportunity for restoration or reinterpretation. With its generous proportions, original details, and expansive grounds, this 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home captures the spirit of California living. Through the wide front Dutch door, the living room welcomes with vaulted ceilings, a brick fireplace with oversized hearth, and built-in cabinetry characteristic of the style. The adjoining family room with dining area carries forward these hallmarks with peg and groove oak hardwood floors, shiplap paneling, a built-in indoor grill and restaurant quality stainless steel bar--an authentic touch of midcentury entertaining. In primarily original condition, the kitchen is anchored by a curved diner style booth and formica table and matching bean-shaped soffit with wood moldings, offering a warm setting for family meals. A vintage in-counter blender next to updated stainless steel stove, refrigerator, and dishwasher balance originality with a modern touch. Generous storage is found throughout the home, including a walk-in pantry and built-in cabinetry and closets in nearly every room. The private wing includes three bedrooms, including a primary suite with nearly floor-to-ceiling windows that open to the expansive backyard, double closets, a dressing area with built-in vanity leading to the en suite bathroom with Dutch door, freestanding shower with glass enclosure and unique corner tub. From glass doors in the family room and main corridor, the backyard beckons with mature oaks and pecans shading a sport court and generous open space, offering endless potential for gathering, gardening, and reimagining. Outside, board-and-batten siding and whimsical dovecote detailing on multiple roof peaks distinguish this expansive, custom-designed storybook ranch property, providing an exceptional opportunity to restore, expand, and re-envision for generations to come.
