Rubidoux neighborhood, it beckons with its unique blend of historical character and contemporary living. As you approach, the mid-century charm is evident—the bay windows adorned with copper taper-style bonnet accents create an inviting façade and the front porch welcomes you. Enter through the large foyer, where an adorable alcove awaits to relieve you of coats and bags. The original hardwood floors lead you further into the heart of the home. The spacious living room, bathed in natural light, centers around a grand fireplace. But it’s the expansive picture window that steals the show, framing panoramic views of the surrounding landscape.

Whether you’re prepping meals or simply enjoying the view from the front bay window, it’s a place where memories are made. Upstairs, two bedrooms open to a private courtyard—a tranquil spot for quiet mornings and contemplation. The bedroom facing the back of the home has access to the large balcony which is also connected to the living room. Downstairs, the family room beckons with its second fireplace and a convenient wet bar cabinet. And tucked away from the rest of the house, a primary suite awaits, complete with a full bath and a generously sized bedroom. Outside, mature trees create a serene oasis, shielding you from the city’s hustle and bustle. Commuters will appreciate the easy freeway access, making travel and shopping a breeze. And for entertainment and dining, Downtown Riverside is just a stone’s throw away. Recent retrofit improvements, fresh paint, and new HVAC systems ensure comfort and convenience. This home isn’t just a house—it’s a haven where history and modern living intertwine seamlessly. Feel free to explore this charming abode and envision the life it holds within its walls.
