C. G. Franz Craftsman Home: Authentic Period Architecture, Fully Updated This is a genuine early 20th century Craftsman—documented as early as 1915—not a reproduction. Built during the height of the American Craftsman movement with the quality and attention to detail that defines the era. The exterior displays true period architecture: a welcoming deep front porch, original cypress siding, low-pitched gabled roof, and distinctive dentil molding framing the windows. Inside, over a century of craftsmanship is evident in every detail. Restored original wood floors span the spacious rooms, complemented by the characteristically wide wood trim that distinguishes authentic period construction. An original stained-glass window—crafted for this home over a century ago—distinguishes the dining room. The stone fireplace is flanked by original glass-front cabinets, and throughout the home you'll find preserved mahogany doors and authentic period hardware that simply cannot be replicated today. The flexible floor plan offers generous-sized rooms adaptable for various uses. Two bedrooms occupy the main level, with two additional rooms upstairs providing options for guest suites, home offices, or creative spaces. The main floor bathroom features a restored cast iron tub, while upstairs you'll find a newly installed large tiled walk-in shower. Comprehensive modern updates have been recently completed and include: site-built cabinetry with granite countertops in the kitchen and baths, new appliances, spray foam insulation in the walls and attic for superior energy efficiency, a new metal roof, zoned HVAC, on-demand water heater, updated electrical wiring, and PEX plumbing throughout. The expansive backyard, enclosed by a new 8-foot privacy fence, includes an original barn/carriage house—a rare period outbuilding offering additional storage or workshop space.
