This Beautiful Pool home is located in one of Riverside's highly sought after Historical Districts, Palm Heights. Upon arrival the beautiful landscaping, recently updated exterior paint and Front Porch will welcome you in. The front entry opens into an open space with built in shelving and the wood floors that run throughout set the stage for the character this home offers. The large Livingroom features the beautiful picture window and brick fireplace. The dining room is adjacent to the living room and has an abundance of natural light that comes through the large windows. The kitchen has been updated but charm remains with a farmhouse sink, green cabinets and butcher block counter tops. The 3 good size bedrooms are conveniently located near the full bathroom. The bathroom has been updated and has a separate tub and shower. The bedroom to the rear of the home has an attached bonus room, this would be the perfect retreat area or office space. The garage is oversized and p[rovides access to the rear yard. The rear yard is your own oasis with a large pool and plenty of yard and patio space to host large get togethers. This is one of the favorite streets, the neighbors all stay connected and look out for each other. The roof was recently replaced, and the home was painted inside and outside. You can be in your new pool before Easter. The area is near local schools, the Riverside Plaza for restaurants, shopping and the Movie theater.
