Built in 1913, this extraordinary Craftsman is a true Mission Hills treasure, thoughtfully preserved to honor its rich history while seamlessly incorporating modern comforts. Set on a corner lot and comprised of two parcels, this is an incredibly rare and curated offering in Mission Hills. Exceptional craftsmanship and meticulously preserved original details showcase the home's remarkable character and architectural integrity including rare and exquisite Douglas Fir millwork throughout, gorgeous original quarter-sawn oak floors, and original divided, double-hung windows creating a warm, bright, and elegant atmosphere. The living room, which now expands into the original parlor room, is anchored by sliding pocket doors, a stunning original tiled fireplace, and original built-in window seat with hidden storage and classic window casings.

Every detail has been carefully preserved, from the curated and salvaged interior doors and century-old glass doorknobs, to the custom Gustoff Stickley copper lighting and classic Mission Hills moldings throughout the home. The beautifully remodeled kitchen perfectly complements the home's early century architecture with exceptional attention to detail. White subway tile, black soapstone countertops, polished nickel hardware, a farmhouse sink, stainless steel appliances, a convection steam oven, custom dental molding above the range hood, and matching original bead-board create a timeless space that feels both authentic and luxurious.
