An Elegant Eichler Hits the Market at $1.15M in Northern California

Although many of these houses have undergone extensive renovations over the years, this four-bedroom, two-bath home currently on the market has been tastefully updated, preserving many of the original details to embrace the authentic midcentury charm.
