Step into a truly one-of-a-kind bungalow where timeless character meets modern versatility. Originally built as a charming bungalow, this beautifully updated home has been expanded with two thoughtfully designed additions, creating a distinctive property that offers warmth, functionality, and flexibility. Located within walking distance of the Western District, you'll enjoy easy access to local favorites including the Will Rogers Theatre, Rococo, Musashi's Japanese Steakhouse, Sushi Neko, and the popular Chicken Shack. The home offers 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and 1 half bathroom. Renovations and additions were completed by Thomas Kirby Construction, blending quality craftsmanship with the home's original character. The first addition added two spacious bedrooms and a full bath, providing comfortable accommodations for family, guests, or flexible living arrangements. The standout feature is the detached studio addition behind the home, constructed by BCC Contracting. Professionally designed as a recording studio, this rare space has been used by artists including MOTHICA, Josh Fudge, Johnny Manchild, and Tyson Meade. Engineered with acoustically decoupled walls, it offers exceptional sound isolation and endless possibilities as a recording studio, podcast space, content creation hub, executive office, guest suite, or income-producing rental. Currently leases below market at $1000/month. Studio features include a commercial-grade sound-sealing door, custom argon-filled soundproof window, professionally installed 24-channel audio passthroughs by Audio Dimensions, individual climate control, dedicated 240V power, separate internet and cable service, and built-in HDMI, USB, and CAT5 connectivity. Blending original bungalow charm with modern updates, this unique property is more than a home—it's a creative retreat and an exceptional opportunity unlike anything else on the market.
