174 Del Norte WAY San Luis Obispo, CA 93405

Enjoy the soft afternoon breeze on this welcoming tree-lined street as you settle into this turn-key, one-story home. The property features great views, a dynamite location and an impeccable remodel executed to the owner’s care and standards for his own home.

A centerpiece is the contemporary kitchen with soft-close cabinets and butcher-block counters; wood-look cabinets anchor the kitchen and the bright white uppers lighten and lift. The remodel also includes an on-demand water heater; updated plumbing and electrical; hand-troweled drywall; new wide-plank, water-resistant vinyl flooring in most of the house and carpet in the extra room. The converted garage features a sliding door that affords an expansive view of Cerro San Luis, the perfect visual relief that allows the outdoors into a home office or fourth bedroom. The bathroom features a pedestal sink, cast-iron Kohler shower pan, rainwater sliding door, and low-threshold shower and bench for accessibility and comfort.

An exterior laundry room expands the home’s functional space. Plumbing to the laundry room was outfitted with ¾-in plumbing, in case the new owner wants to turn it into another bathroom. It is possible that the converted garage and an extra bathroom could be a separate studio dwelling (check with the city).

The exterior was updated with stucco, weep screed, gutters and extensive underground drainage. The front and side yards feature meandering DG pathways through drought-tolerate plantings with drip irrigation, all professionally installed by Dan’s Landscaping; a lemon tree offers Central Coast citrus, and leaves on the Chinese pistachio tree should produce magnificent fall color. The 6,300-sq-ft lot offers stunning views of Bishop Peak and a patio for gatherings; the large lot could also accommodate an additional dwelling.
