Perfection in The Annex. A home that stands out from the others!
Some homes are memorable and outstanding, and create long-lasting positive impressions. 5830 Sutter is one of those homes. Almost twenty years ago, in June 2006, while on broker tour, I saw such a home, 5830 Sutter. It’s large, gracious and perfectly proportioned rooms flowed seamlessly and opened level-out to the yard, from all the right places. The generous size of the rooms and home, the broad archways and original architectural details, the fabulous storage, the abundance of versatile bonus spaces and the wonderful floorplan and the large yard, were unique for the neighborhood. Since that time, I have thought of the home many times and have rarely seen such a perfect home in The Annex. Now, after just shy of 20 years, I have the honor of bringing this home to the market. Without a doubt, you will be delighted by this home. Come and experience a home that stands out from the others.
