461 E SHERMAN AVE S

This Liberty Wells bungalow has been carefully cultivated for year-round comfort. From its impressive curb appeal to its extensive structural updates, this home perfectly blends original elements with peace of mind. Summer evenings are best spent relaxing on the large covered front porch or unwinding on the private redwood deck in the backyard. Inside, the home remains a cool sanctuary during the warmer months thanks to a smart-thermostat-regulated central air system and a naturally comfortable basement level. When the temperature drops, your comfort is equally assured. You can come home from a day on the slopes to soak in your backyard hot tub, or step onto the cozy, heated tile floors of the remodeled kitchen. The interior showcases original maple and Douglas fir hardwood floors throughout. The bright and open kitchen is equipped with premium stainless steel Bosch appliances and sleek black granite countertops. A thoughtful rear extension adds a convenient mudroom and generous square footage to the primary bedroom. The main-level bathroom was remodeled in 2021 with modern finishes and a dual vanity. Downstairs features a separate entrance, a dedicated laundry room with a utility sink, and clever built-in storage. The HVAC system was updated in 2018, and the historic radiators were intentionally left in place, offering the rare and flexible option to install a modern boiler for radiant heat instead of forced air. The outdoor space is a private, fully fenced oasis with a sprinkler system servicing, and dedicated garden area. Colorful blooms surround the yard from spring through fall, complemented by apple, nectarine, and peach trees. A brand-new shed installed in 2026 provides excellent additional storage. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, a comprehensive list of high-value improvements has been completed in recent years to maximize efficiency and structural integrity. A full seismic retrofit was completed in 2025, alongside a basement remodel featuring new windows and a radon mitigation system. Additional noteworthy updates include a new roof and a 3.3 kW solar array installed in 2018, enhanced attic insulation, a water softener, and durable Hardie siding on the back of the home. Perfectly situated on a quiet, tree-lined street just around the corner from Liberty Park, this vibrant location offers incredible walkability to a wonderful mix of local shops, cafes, and eateries.
