Established raised garden beds and mature succulents add to the landscaping, creating a balance of open lawn, garden space, and comfortable outdoor gathering areas. Beyond its original charm, the home has benefited from several significant improvements, including an earthquake retrofit, copper plumbing, a tankless water heater, newer roof, and newer air conditioning. Fresh interior and exterior paint complete the recent updates. Conveniently located near the Claremont Village, Claremont Colleges, neighborhood parks, and local shops and restaurants, this home offers easy access to the amenities that make Claremont such a desirable place to live.
