Property Description

One of Downtown San Luis Obispo's Finest Restored Craftsman Residences: A rare and extraordinary offering in the heart of San Luis Obispo, this impeccably restored 1922 Craftsman bungalow embodies the perfect balance of historic authenticity and contemporary refinement. Originally custom built by respected local craftsman Harry Lyman, the residence has been thoughtfully transformed while preserving the architectural integrity that makes early California Craftsman homes so beloved. Rich hardwood floors, original millwork, period detailing, and abundant natural light create an atmosphere of warmth and sophistication throughout. The beautifully renovated kitchen serves as the centerpiece of daily living, featuring premium Bosch appliances, generous pantry storage, new kitchen cabinetry, and a charming breakfast nook. Formal and informal living spaces flow seamlessly to the outdoors, creating an ideal environment for entertaining and relaxed Central Coast living. Beyond the home itself lies an unexpected sanctuary. The expansive grounds offer a remarkable sense of privacy rarely found so close to downtown. Mature trees, lush landscaping, custom redwood decks, and a pergola create an enchanting outdoor retreat for gathering, gardening, dining, and quiet reflection. A detached garage and adjoining flex space provide endless possibilities for a studio, office, fitness room, workshop, guest accommodations, or future ADU potential, subject to buyer verification. For added downtown convenience, the property may be eligible for up to two City of San Luis Obispo residential parking permits, currently $20 per permit annually, subject to City requirements and buyer verification. Combining architectural pedigree, extensive modernization, exceptional privacy, and an enviable downtown location, this is a truly special opportunity to own one of San Luis Obispo's most distinctive historic homes.
