Push open the big, beautiful gates and the city falls away. What's waiting is a secret garden — the romantic, storybook entry that makes you feel like you've slipped into an English cottage, right in the heart of Temescal. This home was taken down to the studs and rebuilt. Behind the original double-hung windows and hardwood floors: all-new plumbing, new electrical, and a forced-air furnace. Vintage soul, none of the 3-a.m. surprises. At 901 square feet, your light-filled upstairs home lives large. New kitchen with stone counters and room to actually cook. Fresh bathroom. Original built-in cabinetry in the formal dining room. A bedroom with a fireplace, built-ins, and a walk-in closet — plus a separate den for the home office or the reading nook.

A private and huge storage locker with its own entrance — the bikes, the holiday bins, the wine, the someday projects, all of it. In condo life, that's buried treasure.

And in a neighborhood this walkable, Temescal's best restaurants and shops are two blocks away. Charm you can't fake, bones you can count on, in a neighborhood everyone's trying to get into.
