Property Description
1914 “AIRPLANE” BUNGALOW
Neatly tucked into a tree-lined cul-de-sac lane, this 1914 “Airplane” style Bungalow is loaded with charm and character. Upon entering, your eye is drawn to the focal point of the living room: its hand-crafted, river rock fireplace complemented by the warmth of hardwood flooring. The flooring continues into the formal dining room which is framed with wainscoting and able to accommodate a large gathering. The kitchen has been updated and opens out to a spacious family room. The main level offers 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. Upstairs, you will find the primary suite which consists of a bedroom and bath. The special characteristic of an “airplane” bungalow is a single room on the second floor surrounded by windows, said to resemble the cockpit of an airplane and designed to originally be a sleeping room in summer months with all-around access to breezes. An attached, wrap-around, redwood deck offers ample space for outdoor dining and entertainment and overlooks a sparkling, blue swimming pool that screams “jump in and cool off” on these warm days of summer. The rear yard includes a large, grassy area and is graced with a lovely view of the mountains. The oversized, 11,000+ square foot lot provides plenty of parking. In addition, there is an outbuilding with a carport with plumbing and electricity which would be perfect for an ADU. This home is located near public transportation, the park and recreation center and the downtown village of Sierra Madre.
