Property Description
Step into one of Fortuna's most distinctive homes -- a beautifully maintained Dutch Colonial that commands attention from the moment you arrive. Framed by towering redwoods and firs, the sage-green shingle exterior, arched entry, and matching 2-car detached garage set an unmistakable tone: this is a home with character, craftsmanship, and soul. Inside, nearly 2,000± square feet of living space flows across two thoughtfully designed floors. Original hardwood floors gleam throughout the main level, complemented by crown molding, plantation shutters, and generous ceiling heights that give every room a classic, elevated feel. The formal living room -- anchored by a brick fireplace and a sweeping multi-pan bay window -- fills with natural light and garden views year-round. A second family room provides flexible space for a media room, playroom, or home office, while the formal dining room easily accommodates gatherings of any size.
The main-floor primary suite offers single-level convenience, while three additional bedrooms upstairs -- including one nearly 20 feet long -- provide room to grow, host, and create. A private balcony off the upper level adds another layer of connection to the surrounding landscape.
Outside, the property truly distinguishes itself. The backyard is a curated garden retreat: a manicured lawn bordered by blooming camellias, magnolias, and ornamental perennials, all enclosed by a redwood privacy fence. Follow the stone path to one of the property's most unique features -- a wooden observation deck over the seasonal creek, set beneath a cathedral canopy of mature redwoods. It's the kind of spot that stops you mid-sentence.
The oversized concrete driveway accommodates multiple vehicles, trailers, and boat storage with ease, making this home equally suited for outdoor enthusiasts and large households.
Located in the heart of Fortuna -- close to schools, parks, shopping, the Riverwalk trail system, and the Eel River -- this is a rare opportunity to own a home that genuinely has it all: space, style, and a setting you won't forget.
