Welcome to 953 Lassen St, a Richmond View bungalow with a magical backyard and large detached workshop. Originally a petite 2- bedroom cottage, this sweet home grew into a 3- bedroom, 2- bath bungalow with a newer primary suite and an open concept kitchen/dining/living area in 2015. Its huge level backyard, abundant with fruit trees (persimmon, apple, plum), artichokes, herbs and berries has always been coveted by the current owners, as it was by the former owner. It is a rare and beautiful environment, that fully extends the indoor space. A fabulous detached, backyard workshop, and charming gardener's shed, tucked at the rear of the yard, enhance the home and grounds, and offer tremendous possibilities. The current owners used the workshop as such, and loved to build and create there. Perhaps you have always wanted to create an art or hobby space, or you would love to tinker and refine your carpentry skills. These spaces will support these passions. Ideally located, close to Alvarado Park, public transit, many cafes and restaurants, including Catahoula Coffee, Tacos El Tuca'n, Factory Bar, & numerous markets and shops. Amenities include one-level living, almost level-in entry, an attached garage, fresh paint in and out, hardwood floors throughout and sewer lateral compliance.
