Nestled in the heart of the charming and historic Santa Clara Manor neighborhood, this beautifully updated home offers a rare blend of character, comfort, and timeless appeal. Originally built in 1951 by Murry Development, this residence began life as Plan C and was expanded by its original owner, Lee Hasenjaeger, in both 1954 & 1958. Set along a tree-lined street known for its pride of ownership and welcoming atmosphere, this home is ready to begin its next chapter. The current owners—a well-known chef and his wife—have lovingly enhanced the home with a stunning kitchen, updated bathrooms, new flooring, new windows, new plumbing and hvac, Tesla car charger, new stamped concrete and many more thoughtful upgrades. A winding pathway leads you to a cozy covered porch, setting the tone for what awaits inside. Step into a bright, open-concept living space featuring wide plank wood-grain flooring, a fire-lit living room, and seamless flow into the dining area and kitchen—perfect for both everyday living and entertaining. Plantation shutters and crown molding add a touch of classic elegance throughout. The kitchen is both beautiful and functional, offering abundant counter space and storage. Highlights include a Viking 4-burner cooktop with griddle and downdraft vent, plus included stainless steel refrigerator, washer, and dryer. Bathed in morning light, the kitchen connects to a convenient mudroom designed to keep everything organized. Additional spaces include a skylit office with built-in storage and a safe, and a comfortable TV room overlooking the backyard. The primary bedroom features mirrored closets with custom organization and direct access to a relaxing spa. Two additional bedrooms sit along the side of the home. Outdoors, enjoy a private backyard retreat complete with a covered pergola and built-in Jenair BBQ—ideal for gatherings year-round. A large Tuff Shed tucked behind the garage offers flexible space. The garage includes extensive built-in storage, even showcasing original metal kitchen cabinetry for a touch of vintage charm. Set in the highly walkable Park Santiago neighborhood, the home is just moments from the renovated Santiago Park. Here you'll find a wide array of amenities including tennis and pickle ball courts, lawn bowling, a baseball diamond, bike trails, fitness paths, and play areas. Freshly painted and thoughtfully updated, this home combines historic charm with modern convenience in one of the area’s most beloved neighborhoods.
