Combine the elegant craftsmanship of the Victorian era and sophisticated upgrades of the 21st Century and you have 686 Castro Street. Tall, coved ceilings and windows provide a sense of light and space throughout. The east-facing living room has a deep bay and a decorative fireplace. The formal dining room features the original built-in buffet, elaborate inlaid floors and decorative fireplace. The fully remodeled kitchen provides a dramatic setting with generous space and amazing storage with direct access to the cheerful, west-facing sunroom and large, verdant and secluded garden. The exquisitely remodeled bath and a second remodeled half bath are well-situated near the two large bedrooms. Each bedroom has two closets and more storage is accessible under the stairs. Additionally, there is a one car, independent parking space and deeded storage room in garage. While just two blocks from the heart of Castro with its delightful shops, restaurants and multiple transportation options, the home provides a peaceful refuge.
