About this home

This charming Henry W. Howell-designed home, built in 1931, is located on a picturesque street in San Roque.

The home offers 3 bedrooms, 1 full bath, and 1 half bath. The entry opens to a spacious living room with beamed ceilings, arched front window, built-in bookcases, art niches, and a fireplace with original tile surround, flowing through an archway into the formal dining room with built-in hutch and china cabinet. The kitchen has an older remodel with Formica counters and built-in appliances. Adjacent to the kitchen is a generous utility area with abundant cabinetry, pantry storage, laundry area, and a half bath. The primary bedroom features a sloped ceiling and spacious closet. Two additional bedrooms offer excellent closet space, including walk-in closets, and one opens through French doors...
