Description
This cozy cottage, built in 1893 by Mr. Lowe, is rich in history & character. After Mr. Lowe’s passing in 1900, the home briefly served as a brothel, adding to its colorful past. Property’s brick walkway and foundation were crafted on-site in the late 1800s, and the street is named after its original builder. Expanded in the 1950s, the home features a 2,100 sf custom deck, added in 1982, perfect for entertaining, with a calming water fountain and a spacious backyard. Warm wood accents and energy-efficient Pella windows bring out the historic charm while modernizing the space. The gas fireplace provides clean, reliable heat, even during power outages, the kitchen boasts both convection and conventional ovens with a grill. The attached greenhouse, now with a new roof, doubles as a laundry room. The property is home to year-round blooms, fruit trees, and abundant wildlife, including birds, deer, and a natural honeybee hive. The passive solar design keeps the home cool in summer and warm in winter, and the deck offers stunning views of Mount Diablo and the valley lights. Located just one block from the main road, you’re steps away from local restaurants and community events. The Lowe House is perfect for anyone seeking a home filled with history, warmth, and unique natural beauty.
