The more than 2,000-square-foot residence is considered a “contributing house” to the former agricultural area’s historic and architectural identity. Other early styles represented in the community include California bungalow, Victorian and Prairie.
In keeping with the Arts and Crafts character, the two-story home has a wide front porch supported by tapered columns. Exposed rafter tails face the street. The second-story windows enclose what was once a sleeping porch. Stained glass, built-ins and wood wainscoting continue the architectural theme indoors.from its famous catalog — before refrigerators and dishwashers had yet to become household items.A small plaque on site identifies the original owner as George Randall.

The third-acre lot also contains an expanse of lawn and old-growth fruit trees.
The property, at 965 E. Howard St., is listed for $1.185 million. Peter Martocchio and David Goldberg of Sotheby’s International Realty are the listing agents.
