Property Description
Tucked into the sought-after Myers Hill neighborhood, this 1930s home carries the character of another era while offering everything today's buyer expects. Arched doorways, ornate ironwork on the staircase, and vaulted ceilings throughout speak to a level of craftsmanship rarely found in new construction. At 2,441 square feet, the home offers four bedrooms and two and a half baths, thoughtfully updated over the years without losing its original charm. A bright, generously sized living area centers around a gas fireplace, ideal for gathering on cooler evenings. The kitchen has been outfitted with stainless steel appliances, granite counters, and custom wood cabinetry, with a sunny nook that opens directly onto the covered patio. The main level also includes a den warmed by a wood-burning fireplace and a conveniently placed half bath. Upstairs, the primary suite offers filtered treetop views, an updated en-suite bath with a walk-in shower, and a closet large enough to double as a dressing room. A private balcony, three more bedrooms, and a full bath with vintage-inspired tilework complete the second floor. The basement level adds real versatility, with room for a home gym plus dedicated laundry and storage space, along with a single-car garage. Outside is where this property truly sets itself apart. The backyard has been shaped into a series of garden terraces shaded by mature trees, with several spots to unwind, plus a private pool for warm-weather afternoons. All of this sits on a double lot inside Sonora's city limits, an easy walk to historic downtown, yet with the quiet, tucked-away feel of a country property.
