01About this home

Welcome to 197 Woodside Road - the beauty on the block that everyone talks about. This classic Colonial offers 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, blending timeless architecture with thoughtful modern updates. Originally moved from the site of the current Riverside Central Grade School, this iconic Riverside home is rich in history, character, and craftsmanship. Meticulously maintained and updated throughout, the home delivers the perfect balance of traditional charm and today's conveniences. Original woodwork and architectural details blend seamlessly with high-end improvements, including a stunning Schrocks of Walnut Creek kitchen remodel featuring inset cabinetry inspired by the home's original 1920s craftsmanship, handmade Waterworks tile, professional-grade Viking appliances, coffered ceilings, and built-in speakers. The spacious two-story layout features four bedrooms on the second floor, including a primary suite with a luxurious private bath and walk-in closet. A formal dining room, warm and inviting living room with a gas fireplace, and sunroom create the perfect setting for everyday living and entertaining. The updated kitchen opens to a cozy family room and quiet backyard with oversized lot. The third-floor attic offers easy expansion potential with HVAC and electrical already brought to the space - ideal for a future bedroom, office, playroom, or bonus room. Outdoor highlights include a custom-built pergola, landscape lighting, sprinkler system, basketball hoop, and additional storage shed - creating an amazing space to entertain, relax, and play. Additional updates include all new custom Pella windows (2020), renovated bathrooms with upscale finishes, professionally refinished staircase and second-floor doors, a fully renovated basement with interior drain tile and dual backup sump pumps (2021), and a Generac 22KW whole-house generator. Set on one of Riverside's most picturesque streets, this is a rare opportunity to own a truly special home in one of Riverside's most desirable locations - close to schools, parks, restaurants, shops, train, and everything the community has to offer.
