It's become a sad trend to see old homes taken over and robbed of their character by flippers who blow out walls and rip away architectural details in a quest for"modern appeal."
A duplex recently listed for sale in the Monte Vista Historic District for $725,000 has both its exterior and interior charms intact thanks to the seller, who the listing agent said made a priority of preserving the structure's historical integrity since buying it in 2007. One of the home's units is a two-bedroom, one-bath affair with high ceilings and hardwood floors that the listing describes as being"beautifully decorated like a cozy English Cottage." The other includes three bedrooms, two baths with hardwood floors and its period detailing largely untouched.
Built in 1937, the stone-exterior home is in a section of Monte Vista that featured some of the neighborhood's first multifamily dwellings, according to Donald E. Everett's book"By the time development of Monte Vista was well underway, young couples had become attracted to this lifestyle," Everett wrote of the enclave.
