Property Description

Tucked into highly sought-after Alta Heights, this 1953 California Vintage bungalow captures the charm and nostalgia of old Napa: sunny, soulful and lovingly cared for through decades of ownership. Set on a generous, private lot with beautiful views, a pool and mature landscaping, it is a home made for long summer afternoons, open doors and easy indoor-outdoor living. Inside, the home offers 3 bedrooms and 1.5 baths, along with a permitted enclosed patio adding more than 400 square feet of additional living space: ideal for gathering, dining, working or simply spreading out. There is also potential to add a second full bathroom, separate from the existing half bath, offering even greater flexibility for the future. The home's vintage character has been thoughtfully preserved while meaningful improvements have been made over the years, including updated electrical and plumbing, a newer roof, Lennox central heating and air conditioning, standby generator with upgraded circuit boards and transfer switch, gas water heater and a lined sewer connection. The backyard is quintessential California living, with a refreshed pool featuring newer plaster, skimmer and coping, plus a pool cover and solar heating panels. Updated irrigation and drought-tolerant landscaping complete the grounds, creating a private setting for afternoons by the pool, dinners on the patio and taking in the views. Lakeview Park is nearby, with downtown Napa's restaurants, tasting rooms and everyday conveniences just minutes away. Authentic rather than overdone, this is a home with history, warmth and pride of ownership: a special piece of old Napa ready for its next chapter.
