Welcome to the Adolphus and Margaretha Hatcher House—a rare blend of history and possibility in the heart of University Heights. Built in 1910 during the Arts and Crafts movement, this Mills Act-designated Craftsman bungalow beautifully preserves its timeless character while incorporating modern enhancements. With rich hardwood floors, 9-foot ceilings, and abundant natural light, this 3-bedroom + optional, 1.5-bathroom home exudes warmth, character, and sophistication. From the moment you arrive, the cobblestone front porch and timeless architectural details create a striking first impression. Inside, the chef’s kitchen features top-of-the-line Bosch and Thermador appliances, perfect for bringing culinary visions to life. A versatile bonus room offers endless possibilities—expand the primary bath, create a spacious walk-in closet, or design a personalized flex space to fit your lifestyle. Step outside into a sprawling backyard brimming with potential. The lower level has been enhanced with turf for effortless upkeep, while the upper level features a custom-built playhouse—a dream space for kids and additional storage underneath. The elevated deck provides the perfect setting to relax, unwind, or host a lively backyard BBQ. Whether you envision adding an ADU, cultivating a lush garden, or designing your private retreat, this outdoor space is a rare gem. Ideally located just moments from trendy restaurants, artisan coffee shops, and the best of University Heights, this home seamlessly blends history, charm, and modern convenience. More than a home, it’s a timeless treasure.
