HISTORICAL CHARM radiates from this late 1800's built home on a sprawling quarter acre corner lot in Downtown Sonora. While much of the home is in need of repair, a DETACHED COTTAGE offers a habitable space to occupy while fixing up the main home. As you walk through the gated entrance you will envision this home in its prime, with the iconic upper balcony and rock wall borders. The covered main porch was perfect place to sit while passerby's strolled to town. A grand interior offers a formal front room with glass French doors leading into the family room. The kitchen and formal dining room are at the rear of the home with the dining room offering a built-in hutch. Completing the main level is a bedroom, bathroom and sitting room. The upper level provides 4 additional bedrooms with a full bathroom and hall access to the upper balcony. Old newspapers line the flooring under the vinyl, providing a time stamp for prior renovations. ESTABLISHED GARDEN offers sweet red grapes ready to pick, apples, fig and olive. The detached cottage is fully sustainable and currently rented offering 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom, full kitchen, laundry and a living room. If you have a deep appreciation of history, this home will surely exceed your desire to bring life back into this home.
