Cambria CA Home for Sale
Step through the door and back into time here at 361 Weymouth. One of the first homes built on the street, this family-built home is on the market for the first time ready for new memories to be made here. The home was built in two sections. The first section included the garage and the first kitchen area where the stove is, the back bath and bedroom. In 1950 the two story front section was completed and became the primary living space. The main living room is set off by the high ceilings and wood flooring that lead to the formal dining area and into the kitchen. The kitchen is split - the galley room features the wet portion with sink, counter and cabinetry plus dining nook space. Then enter into the original part of the home where the magnificent stove sits. This grand dame of a stove still works! Beyond the cooking kitchen is a full bath and back bedroom. Upstairs you will find the second story bedroom which is expansive but could possibly be divided to create two bedrooms. From upstairs, ocean views can be seen. The full bath upstairs includes the laundry. The gardens of the home show off the natural vegetation of Cambria. Two small outbuildings await new tasks - chicken coop? potting shed? The single car garage also has the staircase for attic access and the small workshop tucked onto the side of the garage provides more work space. The cement bricks used in the construction were made on site in the 40s. A unique property, waiting for a new story.
