Description

Nestled beneath a canopy of majestic oaks, this iconic Westside Ukiah residence seamlessly blends the charm and craftsmanship of the 1930s with the comfort and functionality of modern living. On the market for the first time in nearly a century, and thoughtfully renovated and expanded during the current owners' 50-year stewardship, this home honors its architectural roots with a timeless design for everyday living and entertaining. Spacious, light-filled rooms, beautiful hardwood floors, custom built-ins, and gracious formal spaces create an atmosphere of quiet sophistication. Throughout the home, details such as window seats, three fireplaces, and finely crafted woodwork reflect a level of quality rarely found today. Expansive windows welcome natural views into every room with the kitchen and dining room's wall of windows overlooking the beautifully landscaped backyard, and living room French doors open to an intimate elevated patio. The upstairs primary suite is a private retreat with a fireplace, generous walk-in closet, and beautifully appointed bath. Additional spaces include a bar plumbed for future sink conveniently situated between the dining and living rooms, butler's pantry/mudroom, main-level den, and upstairs laundry room, balancing character with everyday convenience. The backyard is a natural extension of the home, with a spacious deck, pergola, patio, and mature landscaping set beneath towering oaks. A bespoke waterfall and outdoor lighting create a warm and inviting setting for outdoor living and gatherings beneath the canopy. Meticulously maintained gardens offer four seasons of color and blooms, with an exceptional spring showing of azaleas and rhododendrons. Two detached single-car garages provide flexibility and access from both streets of this corner property. Built in 2016, the newer one with an attached carport, is currently fitted out as a wood shop with 220 power, while the other includes a spacious attached guest suite with full bath. A separate garden shed with power and water offers additional space for storage, hobbies, or creative pursuits. Set on more than a quarter acre in one of Ukiah's most sought-after and walkable neighborhoods, this is a rare opportunity to own a residence where architectural character, thoughtful design, and an extraordinary setting come together effortlessly. Ukiah is located in the heart of Mendocino County Wine Country, 2 hours north of the Golden Gate Bridge and 1 hour to the Sonoma County Airport.
