An idyllic property backdropped by Sonoma Creek's meandering waterway, this Glenn Ellen treasure is located in literary legend, Jack London's, famed estate. A onetime gathering place for artists, writers, and freethinkers of the era, the charming locale is mere steps to Jack London's legendary Lake Idelle, which offers various recreational activities and neighborhood gatherings. A Mid-Century home with fantastic bones, this two-bedroom, one and half-bathroom cottage is a contractor's dream. New septic in 2019! Built in 1958 and peppered with period charm, the 816-square foot country home boasts classic post and beam construction. A rustic redwood exterior with wraparound deck reveals a cozy interior with a quaint kitchen that's ripe for reinvention. In the living room, glass sliders open to an expansive deck that overlooks the property's lush foliage, seamlessly merging indoor and outdoor living. Ample windows welcome warmth and light, soaking the space in sunshine. Beyond the main living area, you'll find a gracious bedroom with custom built-ins. The downstairs basement awaits for a game room or extra living space to be designed. A well-loved 4,750sqft lot, set in the heart of Sonoma wine country. This is the first time this home has been on the market in 50 years!
