Creative Sanctuary with Detached Studio in Prime Laurel
Laurel’s got a rhythm all its own, laid-back, walkable, and quietly cool. Tucked along one of its most beloved leafy streets, this two-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath home brings the vibe.
From the sidewalk, it already charms: fresh paint, curated drought-friendly landscaping, and a sweet simplicity that just feels right. Step inside to soaring ceilings with exposed dark wood beams, where light pours through a dramatic cathedral window, washing across the refinished hardwood floors.
The layout flows effortlessly, with just the right balance between communal and private spaces. The kitchen is newly refreshed, featuring a built-in desk nook and ample space for your favorite culinary tools.
Out back, a sun-warmed yard is anchored by a 25+ year-old Coastal Redwood, casting shade, privacy, and a daily dose of calm. The deck is just right for dinner and drinks, while a detached bonus structure—once a music studio—adds two rooms and a half bath ready for whatever’s next: home office, gym, or guest suite.
And then there’s Laurel itself. Morning walks to Santana Coffee. Pints at Ghost Town. Dinner at Jo’s Modern Thai. Fresh produce at Farmer Joe’s. Trailheads. Dog parks.
Rooted, flexible, and quietly special. This is everyday life, distinctly Laurel.
