Welcome to 405 Howard Street, a charming single-story home right in the heart of Midtown Ventura. This is one of those locations people love -- close to top-rated schools and just minutes from shops, restaurants, Ventura beaches, and everyday conveniences. This welcoming home has been thoughtfully expanded to include a spacious primary suite, featuring a modern bathroom with walk-in shower, and a door that leads out to the tranquil backyard. Inside, you are greeted with beautiful original hardwood floors that add warmth and character throughout, along with plenty of natural light that fills the home and gives it an open, inviting feel. The kitchen has been updated and improved with stylish backsplash tiles, updated appliances, and additional cabinetry built out for added storage space. The added sunroom is a perk for additional living space, such as a home office, playroom, or dining area for entertaining. The bedrooms are all equipped with mini-split heating and cooling systems for added comfort. Outside, the curb appeal immediately draws you in, and the backyard is ready to enjoy. A lovely pergola creates a perfect shaded gathering space, complemented by a built-in barbecue, a large grassy area for relaxing or playing, and a storage shed with electricity -- ideal for hobbies, a workshop, or extra storage.
