A whimsical Redlands cottage has come on the market for $525,000.

Designed in a French chateau style, this well-maintained 835-square-foot home has one bedroom, one bathroom and space-saving built-ins.

The house is nestled in a small lot on a cul-de-sac street of storybook homes that are the stuff of fairytales. Known as Normandie Court, the neighborhood built by F.E. Carson and C.R. Hudson in 1926 is a Redlands historic district.

Inside the compact, all-white home is a living room with a built-in window seat, a fireplace and a ceiling fan. The living room flows into the dining room, which has a built-in china cabinet.

Drawers and a cabinet are recessed into what would otherwise be unused wall space in the hallway.

A cozy kitchen shares space with a breakfast nook and a laundry area at the rear of the house.

The back door steps down to a small patio.

Flowers and lush greenery carved by a brick walkway wrap around the house. And like its neighbors, there’s a detached one-car garage.

Joanna Heard of Re/Max Advantage has the listing.

Records show the house sold last in January 2022 for $505,000.
