Don’t miss this rare opportunity to own an important piece of architectural history located in the heart of downtown SLO! This colonial revival era home built in 1910, designated the Jackson House on the Historical Resource list, and has only had two owners. The home was rumored to be a wedding present to the original owner, the famed “blind judge” without law school training who presided over the municipal court from the 1930’s to 1975. The second and current owner, the Endres family raised their four children, hosted many lively parties, musical events and other gatherings in the amazing home and gardens. The main home boasts just under 3500 square feet with 6 bedrooms, 3 baths, an office, bonus room and indoor laundry. There is also a 583 square foot ADU with a separate Chorro Street address above the garage built in the late 70’s, a charming carriage house in the backyard garden that can be used for storage, workout room, or an outdoor entertaining space. Some additional amenities are owned solar, a newer roof and exterior paint, upstairs windows and loads of closet and storage spaces throughout the home, off-street parking with garage and driveway parking on Chorro Street and RV parking on Islay. All of this is situated on an 11,000+ square foot corner lot which is a rare find in the downtown area. Envision yourself living in this amazing piece of history and call your agent for a private viewing!
