About this home

Wish you could find a home that offers timeless style, abundant space, and a neighborhood that actually feels like a destination? Welcome to one of Fresno’s best-kept secrets - Wilson Island. Tucked into this storied enclave sits a true Colonial Revival jewel, where historic charm meets modern livability in the most effortless way. This is the kind of home you dream about when you’ve outgrown cookie-cutter and crave something with soul. From the stately exterior to the thoughtfully designed interior, this 5-bedroom, 4.5-bath residence offers room to live, work, and entertain without compromise. Need flexibility? A bonus room with a closet gives you space for a home gym, office, guest suite, or all three. Imagine sun-drenched mornings in the attached sunrooms off the primary suite and secondary bedroom which is perfect for coffee, journaling, or just a quiet moment to yourself. Hosting? The formal layout flows easily into multiple gathering spaces, inside and out. A private backyard retreat with a sparkling pool and shaded patio sets the scene for summer parties, milestone celebrations, or weekend recharge sessions. Plus, with secure gated parking, a corner-lot presence, and a location steeped in character and community, this is more than just a home - it’s a chance to live in one of Fresno’s most desirable, history-rich neighborhoods. This is the lifestyle you didn’t think you could find here. Now you can. Welcome Home.

Condition Rating
Fair

The property, built in 1921, is exceptionally well-maintained for its age, showcasing clean interiors and good structural integrity. While the kitchen features modern, high-end stainless steel appliances, the tile countertops and backsplash are significantly outdated. All bathrooms consistently exhibit a very traditional/vintage style with subway tiles, checkered floors, and pedestal sinks, which, while clean, are not reflective of recent modern renovations. The bold paint choices throughout also suggest a need for minor updates to appeal to a broader market. Overall, the home is functional and well-kept, but key areas like the kitchen and bathrooms show signs of being aesthetically outdated, aligning with the 'fair' category's description of requiring minor updates or having renovations 15-30 years old.

Cons

Recent Price Reduction: A significant price drop from $949,000 to $850,000 suggests potential challenges in market valuation or initial buyer interest.
