This charming property sits in one of Arcata’s most desirable areas, while also backing up to a gorgeous green belt of Redwood trees, providing views and character. Want to feel miles from anywhere while being right in town, near Cal Poly Humboldt, and just minutes from the Plaza, beach and all that Humboldt has to offer? Look no further!
This 3 unit property features a custom main home, built in 1956, when homes around here were primarily made of Redwood…. There are lots of recent upgrades, including a brand new roof and a new furnace. The entry way is housed within a unique atrium offering a variety of functionality for the space.
Off of the entryway is the kitchen, which features updated cabinets, granite countertops and a breakfast nook with floor-to-ceiling picture windows. Besides the vaulted ceilings, found throughout the entire home, you’ll see a spacious pantry, extra storage and lots of room to live, cook and eat.
The home also has an area that could be considered a formal dining room, just off of the kitchen, or use this as an additional flex space for whatever you can dream up. It features a unique solid wood wall, and more views of the forest beyond.
The living room has a sizable brick hearth, functioning fireplace and multiple skylights. With more floor-to-ceiling windows, you’ll feel nestled in the trees, while looking out on the forest beyond. The floors in the main home have been recently refinished, and like the rest of the house, you’ll find vaulted ceilings with skylights throughout.
The first bedroom is off of the living room and has glass paned French doors, a large, fun porthole window and sunken floor, offering additional privacy and separation.
Down the hallway is the main bathroom with custom tile in the shower, a beautiful stone countertop, and slate flooring.
The two other smaller rooms off of the hallway are a bonus room, with a unique cutout and closet, as well as a second bedroom featuring wood paneling and a large closet. Both have the wood floors and skylights this house should be famous for.
In the Primary Suite, you’ll find a multi-level space featuring two closets, a walk-in shower, space for a wood stove, custom wood shelving, ample-sized en suite, more wooded views, an additional porthole window and private outdoor access to a porch with views of the forest beyond. Privacy outside of every window!
This house has an additional full living space in the downstairs, which can be accessed from the interior of the main home or from the exterior – currently rented separately. This unit offers a full kitchen and bathroom, spacious living room with more of the huge picture windows with wooded views and an additional bedroom with tons of storage, a fully functioning wood stove for heat and ambiance and a solid, cozy wood ceiling. The downstairs living space has never felt more like an isolated cabin in the woods!
The two car garage has been fully finished, with updated wiring, with access from a side door.
There is an additional unit, separately metered over the two car garage. It’s a studio/loft with a full kitchen and bathroom, wood and slate flooring as well ample living space, also currently rented.
Lastly, the yard offers tons of privacy, redwoods and views for days as well as room to dream up other outdoor amenities. If you’re looking for your special spot in the woods, this unique Arcata charmer might be just for you…
