1736 Locust Avenue

Behind the flowering hedge on a quiet corner, this 1960's home opens to gardens, layered outdoor spaces, and a slower rhythm of Northern California living. Wrapped in climbing vines, raised vegetable beds, and seasonal blooms, the landscape changes gently throughout the year, creating a home that feels connected to the outdoors as it does the neighborhood around it. Inside, three bedrooms and one bath preserve much of the homes's original character, while fresh interior and exterior paint and a new roof bring thoughtful updates. Warm, familiar spaces leave room for the next chapter without losing the charm that has always been here. A tiered side yard creates natural gathering spaces for long dinners beneath the stars, evenings around the fire pit, or afternoons spent tending the garden. Just beyond, the third bedroom opens onto its own deck overlooking the yard, a quiet space equally suited as a studio, home office or guest retreat with a garden beyond the door. Life here extends well beyond the front gate. Mornings begin with a walk to Hertiage Coffee before the neighborhood comes to life. Families will appreciate the easy walk to both the middle school and high school, making everyday routines a little simpler. Meet friends at the newly opened Smash Burger, or Fall River Brewing, explore Cascade Village, or spend the afternoon at Shasta Dam and Shasta Lake, where miles of shoreline, scenic trails, and open water have shaped life in the community for generations. On Friday evenings, music drifts through the park as neighbors gather beneath the trees. There is a certain ease to life on Locust Street. Welcome to a home that celebrates the quieter side of Northern California living.
