Property Description

This original-owner Central Davis property offers a rare opportunity to reimagine a special home. Set along the graceful corner curve near the end of cherished Elmwood Drive, the 2,572-square-foot residence rests on nearly a .25-acre lot with an exceptional setting and space for gardens, outdoor living, and countless possibilities. Built in 1959, the home features five bedrooms, three bathrooms, separate living and family rooms, a loft, and a two-car garage. While the property is in need of renovation, its original character and mid-century charm offer an inspiring foundation. Thoughtfully restore its vintage personality, create something entirely new, or use the available remodeling plans to help bring its next chapter to life as your personal home or investment property! This lovely single family home neighborhood captures so much of what makes Davis special, with UC Davis less than a mile away by car and approximately just a six-minute bicycle ride from home, downtown less than two miles away, and neighborhood schools, shopping centers, parks, and everyday conveniences close at hand. Celebrated as the Bicycle Capital of America, Davis offers an extraordinary network of bike lanes and paths that makes traveling around town by bicycle part of the local lifestyle. Nearby downtown is filled with locally owned shops, inviting cafes, restaurants, art, entertainment, and the relaxed character that gives Davis its enduring charm. Central Park serves as a beloved community gathering place, home to the year-round Davis Farmers Market, seasonal Picnic in the Park festivities, and the new Natalie's Corner splash pad with interactive water features, shaded picnic areas, and pollinator gardens. From Saturday mornings at the market to bicycle rides into town, neighborhood walks, and the energy of the university, this central location offers a wonderful connection to the people, traditions, and places that define Davis. A true fixer with tremendous potential, this memorable Elmwood Drive property is ready to be loved, renewed, and carried forward for generations to come.
