3007 Galindo Street—Where timeless charm meets modern comfort

This enchanting 1908 home seamlessly blends vintage elegance with contemporary updates, offering a serene retreat in a vibrant neighborhood. Upon arrival, you’re greeted by the fresh cream-colored exterior adorned with classic white trim and a gracefully draping smoke tree, leading you up to the inviting front porch. The stunning wood-finished front door welcomes you with a nod to the home's vintage character.

Step inside to discover gleaming wood floors that flow throughout the sunny floorplan. The front living room is bathed in natural light from three bay windows, creating a warm and attractive space. Vintage double pocket doors open into the dining room, a showcase of era details including wainscoting, coved ceilings, and built-in cabinetry designed to display your favorite possessions. Glass doorknobs and unique light fixtures add distinctive touches to these exquisite spaces throughout. The kitchen is a culinary delight with butcher block counters, a subway tile backsplash, and ample white cabinetry. The built-in bench seating creates a cozy eat-in area perfect for morning coffee while taking in views of the rear yard. A sunny office off the kitchen - overlooks the meticulously curated back gardens - and features built-in desks and a large closet for added convenience. Retreat to the primary suite featuring an ensuite bath with elegant white subway tiles and a luxurious tub. Completing the floorplan is a second front bedroom and a stylish second full bath with modern brass fixtures. Below the main level, the basement and laundry area measures an additional 696 sq ft and offers endless potential: imagine a future art or maker’s space, home office, or work out room. An oversized garage - measuring approximately 294 sq ft - completes the space.

Step outside to find a true oasis – a fully curated paradise designed with a gardener’s touch. Wander through manicured gardens, mature trees, and meandering pathways that invite you to enjoy the vibrant hummingbirds and buzzing bees. The backyard features a stone pathway, raised planter beds filled with herbs, fruitful lemon and fig trees, and a deck perfect for alfresco dining and morning coffee. Discover a fun playhouse, crafted with knotty pine walls and a rounded green door, complete with a ladder to an upper level – a delightful space for children’s imagination. 3007 Galindo Street is more than just a home; it’s a retreat where every detail has been thoughtfully designed to provide comfort, beauty, and a sense of timeless elegance. What a wonderful place to call home!
