Elevated on the eastern slope of Little Rubidoux, this quintessential California Craftsman sits proudly among a collection of equally distinguished homes. Classic architectural details are proudly displayed, from clinker-brick masonry and weatherboard siding to a deep wraparound shade porch and multi-light casement windows. The interior is as a Craftsman should be. Comfortable and welcoming, spacious and yet not wasteful of space.The living and dining rooms are particularly striking, thoughtfully designed and beautifully preserved over the years. There are 4 bedrooms, one down and three up as well as an additional upstairs room and attached to the primary bedroom is a gorgeous, enclosed sleeping porch; a reminder of the home’s history and adaptability. The kitchen and breakfast room overlook a serene garden retreat, complete with mature citrus trees offering shade and delicious oranges which brought fame to Riverside in those early years of development. This home is just minutes from the trails of Mount Rubidoux, the Lakes and Fairmount Park and the excitement of Downtown Riverside’s central core. It’s also a district contributor to the Mount Rubidoux Historic District which is a neighborhood that is nothing short of stunning.
