Property Detail

Description

Built in 1915, when San Mateo was a growing Peninsula town connected to San Francisco by rail, this timeless Craftsman took its place just blocks from what is now Downtown San Mateo. More than a century later, it remains a beautiful blend of historic character, thoughtful updates, and rare flexibility. Original millwork, refinished hardwood floors, built-in cabinetry, a wraparound porch, and the home's original hutch and buffet reflect the craftsmanship of a bygone era. A fireplace anchors the living spaces, while a light-filled sunroom and generous gathering rooms create warmth throughout. The main residence lives as a spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bath home, including a flexible room off the primary suite ideal for an office, nursery, guest room, or retreat. Upstairs, a legal 2-bedroom, 1-bath residence offers exceptional versatility for rental income, multigenerational living, extended family, or guests. Recent improvements include a new roof, new HVAC system, updated baths, fresh paint, new lighting, and landscaping enhancements. Just blocks from Downtown San Mateo's dining, shopping, entertainment, and Caltrain station, on a charming tree-lined street, this is a rare opportunity to own a piece of San Mateo history with the conveniences of modern living.
