Property Description

HISTORIC c1906 CRAFTSMAN HOME with SUBSTANTIAL ANNUAL MILLS ACT PROPERTY TAX SAVINGS! Designated as Whittier Historic Landmark #40, the Thornburgh/Sorenson House prominently overlooks Central Park in Uptown Whittier's Historic District. Extensive work has been done through the years to ensure this home has the conveniences of modern living, while the original architecture remains, both inside and outside, providing all the charming character of its era. Packed full of original features, including built-in cabinets and window seats, natural wood trim casing, coved ceilings, counter-weight multi-paned windows, corner-set living room fireplace, walk-in closets … with windows … in each bedroom, original front door and the kind of lazy front porch that's just begging for a porch swing. (Can't you imagine yourself entertaining guests on that porch enjoying live music from the City's summertime Concerts In The Park?!) The spacious kitchen has been remodeled giving careful thought to keeping it sympathetic to the home's architecture with beautiful cabinetry, a vintage range and a quaint eat-in breakfast area for informal meals. The laundry room is located conveniently next to the kitchen. The downstairs bathroom features a walk-in shower … and for those who love a leisurely soak, the upstairs bathroom features a large claw-foot tub! From the Living Room walk through a lovely and unique Library/Music Room to the formal Dining Room, then enter onto your private, enclosed back porch oasis overlooking the extensive brick patio and shady garden area. The large 3-car garage opens onto the alley. The 3rd stall is walled off and could be used as a workshop, converted into a guestroom or transformed into an ADU with its own private side patio … the possibilities are endless! Don't miss out on this opportunity to own a piece of Whittier History!
