$389,000


A 1942 Sunset Park cottage, rebuilt from the inside out with a true ”to the studs” renovation completed in 2025 by a local licensed general contractor. Every major system and finish has been replaced: roof, siding, windows, doors, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, insulation, drywall, flooring, cabinetry, appliances, fixtures, and a tankless gas water heater. The result is the character of an established neighborhood with the feel and function of a new home.

The layout offers flexibility across two levels. The main floor includes two bedrooms and a full bath, with clean lines, recessed lighting, and a cohesive modern finish throughout. Upstairs, a private primary suite creates separation from the rest of the home, complete with its own full bath.

The kitchen is designed for everyday use, not just looks. Stainless appliances, a farmhouse sink, generous counter space, and a walk-in pantry that handles both groceries and the overflow of real life make it highly functional.

A separate laundry and utility room with its own exterior access adds practical storage and keeps the main living spaces uncluttered. Out back, a newly built 12×12 deck extends the living area outdoors, while a detached three-stall storage building provides room for tools, hobbies, or coastal gear.

Set in Sunset Park, designated a National Historic District on the National Register of Historic Places in 2003, this property offers a rare combination: historic setting, modern construction standards, and zero renovation guesswork for the next owner.
