Property Description
This Is Home. Atop a knoll sits a wonderful custom 1913 home - that big wonderful one on the Fairfax hill in Melrose Heights. Come on up the driveway through the gate to this house built to last by James and Minnie Baker. Reconceived and remodeled in 2008 it retains the best of its original construction blended with today's lifestyle. Step through the big glass door into the entry, take a relaxing breath before entering this sanctuary where friends and family spill out through the dining area, on to the terrace & deck in to the lush and welcoming back yard. Explore the gardens and peek around corners to see surprising gifts of flowers, play places of grass and vegetables beds. See if you can identify all the different fruit trees. Up the stairs are properly sized bedrooms and an adult retreat overlooking the garden. This is a real home with just the right amount of togetherness and privacy. Imagine lazy days and evenings filled with food, lemonade and play. Is this one yours?
