Property Description
Step into timeless charm and modern luxury with this unique Queen Anne cottage featuring three separate dwellings on iconic Mill Street. Built in 1899 by Teresa True, a pioneering seamstress and single mother, this Mills Act-certified home not only preserves a piece of San Luis Obispo history, but also offers significant property tax savings on this R-2 lot. Beautifully revitalized from foundation to finish, the property seamlessly blends historic character with modern ease—featuring newer plumbing, electrical, and appliances alongside rebuilt sash windows, redwood shiplap, oak plank floors, and drought-tolerant landscaping. The main home includes a restored 1-bedroom residence connected to a private-entry studio apartment—ideal for guests, family, or rental income. Soaring ceilings accent the elegant living room with bay window and a sunlit dining room. The charming kitchen is chef-functional, and the bathroom showcases designer tile and a restored clawfoot tub—a timeless detail inviting you to soak in history and comfort. The original carriage house is now a magical retreat, complete with open beams, pine plank floors, loft bed, Big Sur-inspired design, a half bath, and outdoor shower. Perfect as a home office, guest house, or hideaway. Unwind on the inviting front porch,
