About this home

Morning light moves easily through this home. Set along a quiet, tree-lined stretch of Arlington Avenue, this cheery two-bedroom Edwardian unfolds with an immediate sense of calm and openness. Positioned on the second floor of a classic four-unit building, the home’s eastern exposure welcomes soft morning light that gently fills the living spaces as the day begins. The layout has been thoughtfully reimagined into an open-concept design, where the kitchen becomes the natural center of daily life. Anchored by stone counters, stainless steel appliances, and clean modern lines, it’s a space suited for both quiet mornings and easy evenings with friends, spilling out to an inviting balcony just off the kitchen. New engineered wood floors run underfoot, while high ceilings and preserved period woodwork add depth and character, subtle reminders of the home’s Edwardian roots. Every detail supports comfort and ease: dual-pane windows, in-unit laundry, and a seamless flow that makes the home feel larger than its footprint, with virtually no wasted space. And then there is the location. Drawing energy from Temescal's restaurants, shops, and neighborhood rhythm, and with easy access to BART and freeways, the city feels close but never overwhelming. It’s a setting where convenience and character meet, and daily life moves with a bit more ease. A home that lives simply, and lingers quietly.
