Classic Curb Appeal: Historic Benicia Victorian Home Hits Market

Built in 1890, many of its ornate features remain intact. The property comes with a cottage and an art studio — and you'll get a tax break!

BENICIA, CA — Here's your chance to own a piece of Benicia history with the type of curb appeal only a classic like this one can bring. Built in 1890, the two-story, three-bedroom Victorian home still has many of its original, ornate features intact — inside and out.

Located a block from downtown Benicia and the waterfront, the property listed for $869,000 includes two additional structures: a cottage with a full bath and private entrance; and a large, detached two-car garage with an upstairs artist's studio. All three structures have newer roofs, and the home's solar system is owned outright and provides power to all three structures.

You'll also get a tax cut: the home is part of Historic Mills Act which drastically lowers the property tax.
