Walk back in time upon entering the Bowman House, a Mills Act eligible 1925 California Bungalow. A painstaking restoration of the interior involved stripping off years of old paint to bring back the original wood molding, trim, picture rail, doors, windows and built-in buffet. Live the lifestyle of a bygone era when life slowed down just a little, relaxing on the spacious front porch, chilled glass of chardonnay in hand, while watching the world go by. Invite friends for dinner on the patio, or stroll the grounds, stopping for a chat under the shade of a massive avocado tree. This backyard is huge. Grow fresh food in the vegetable garden, collect eggs from a brood of hens, or make the world’s best guacamole from fresh picked avocados. There is even a cellar that would be perfect for that burgeoning wine collection. Enjoy the lifestyle that Old Town has to offer: walk to local bars, restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques and Pilates studios. Or visit the farmer’s market to stock up on veggies or the local bakery for freshly baked bread. In the summer, take a picnic basket to Concerts in the Park or enjoy an outdoor dinner at Broadway in the Park. Live life like they did in the Golden Age and enjoy the benefits of a walkable neighborhood, where neighbors know each other, and it feels like life slows down just a little. No HOA. No Mello-Roos.
