Sleeping Beauty Awakens! Standing tall and rich in history, this Iconic 1907 Craftsman sister stone High-Water Bungalow is one of Sacramento's architectural treasures. Overlooking East Portal Park, the former site of Zelda's Stone Quarry, this distinctive home is believed to have been built using stone from the quarry. Local lore suggests it once housed the quarry's foreman and later served as a Sacramento State sorority house. Lovingly brought back to life, the home has been thoughtfully reimagined from the inside out, blending historic charm with modern luxury. Extensive 2023 improvements include updated electrical and plumbing, Lutron lighting, a new roof, Andersen dual-pane windows (excluding sunroom), partial sewer line replacement, tankless water heater, HVAC, and mini-split systems. A welcoming foyer with built-in bench and storage leads to beautiful, engineered hardwood floors and an open living and dining area with custom built-ins. The adjoining kitchen shines with quartz countertops, designer tile, breakfast bar, and stainless GE Monogram appliances, including a professional dual-fuel range. A true delight, the sunroom is wrapped in windows overlooking the parkan idyllic spot for morning coffee or relaxing on the adjoining porch. The lower level features a spacious family room, laundry room with sink and backyard access, and a generous primary suite with two closets, including a walk-in. The primary bath offers radiant heated floors and a Toto Washlet. Proudly positioned on an expansive corner lot at 51st and M Streets, the grounds are equally enchanting. Natural landscaping, raised herb and vegetable gardens, drip irrigation, and an assortment of fruit treespluot, fig, Cara Cara orange, lime, and Meyer lemoncreate a lush setting. A grand staircase welcomes you to the front porch with beautiful park views.The generous backyard is anchored by a magnificent cedar tree, offering a peaceful retreat, while a detached two-car garage provides convenient alley access. A rare opportunity to own a beautifully revived piece of Sacramento history, where timeless character and charm meets today's comforts.
