About 1144 Dorothy Street
Timeless architecture meets modern upgrades in this beautifully restored 1930s Craftsman bungalow. Situated on a large lot, this historic home blends original charm—including refinished hardwood floors, arched doorways, and a welcoming front porch—with thoughtful updates for modern living. Major improvements include a new HVAC system and tankless water heater (2022), PEX plumbing, new sewer line, raised foundation with cedar skirting, attic and wall insulation, Hardiplank siding, fresh exterior paint, double-pane windows with plantation shutters, new gutters, and a wrought iron driveway gate with magnetic lock. In 2025, 2” closed-cell spray foam insulation was added beneath the foundation, along with new weatherstripping on front and back doors. The backyard retreat features a 16’ x 16’ porch, professional landscaping, turf lounge area, and an 8-foot Cowboy Pool with heating and cooling. Minutes from the Heights Hike & Bike Trail, M-K-T, dining, shopping, and major freeways.

School information is generated by the most current available data we have. However, as school boundary maps can change, and schools can get too crowded (whereby students zoned to a school may not be able to attend in a given year if they are not registered in time), you need to independently verify and confirm enrollment and all related information directly with the school.
