Old World Charm Modern Amenities On Poppy!!

   

Presenting Mediterranean styling – with its theme of graceful arches, red tiled roof, and perfectly selected exterior color palette – this home is a picture of circa 1929 architecture. Beginning with an elevated front porch that serves as an enchanting outdoor room, the home’s welcoming entrance sets the tone for what lies within where preserved vintage character blends in harmony with chic designer appeal – custom color walls, crisp white millwork, gleaming hardwood floors, and new, period appropriate lighting. Vintage glass doorknobs and the original phone center with pull-down seat in the hallway also recall the home’s early heritage. The rooms are sizable and bright with natural light flooding in from expansive windows, including six signature arched windows at the front of the home. The living room and formal dining room are equally suited for day-to-day living or grand entertaining, all catered by a fabulously remodeled culinary kitchen designed and executed to complement the home’s classic style. Personal accommodations are comprised of three bedrooms, one with en suite half-bath, plus a beautifully updated hall bath complete with a new custom-designed shower enclosure with retro style. Adding to the appeal is a lower level with tandem car garage parking, large laundry area, and a second half-bath. A spacious rear yard with level lawn and expansive stone terrace complete the setting providing a delightful and private spot for play or just relaxing beneath the sun-swept skies. All of this plus a location in sought-after Easton Addition that puts downtown Burlingame, an international airport, world-class healthcare, and commute routes to San Francisco and Silicon Valley all within easy reach.
