Design/build firm Building Art presents this beautifully renovated 2 bed + 2 bath modern, a home miles beyond the average “flip.” Arrival presents an undulating wooden fence suggesting dynamic movement and creating privacy. Step through the offset gate to find drought-tolerant landscaping, a gorgeous wooden deck and floor-to-ceiling sheets of glass. Improvements include enhanced layout, seamless indoor-outdoor flow and numerous amenities, all while leaving character details intact like the original Batchelder fireplace. The stunning open kitchen features top-of-the-line appliances, a cement tile backsplash and steel island countertop. Bedrooms are well-sized with large closets, and versatile enough that one could be made an office. The Master Bath is like a hip, 5-star hotel with its high-end fixtures, wood vanities and freestanding cedar bathtub. There’s natural egress to the rear deck/BBQ area, as well as easy access to the lower patio and one-car garage.
