About 1190 Manor Drive
Situated on a quiet corner of a tree-lined street equidistant from the Nevada Museum of Art, Virginia Lake, and Midtown's restaurants and shops, 1190 Manor Drive offers the best Old Southwest living: established yet vibrant. Thoughtfully cared for and lovingly maintained, it stands as a rare example of how a home can evolve while keeping its heart entirely intact. Located in Reno's beloved Old Southwest neighborhood, this classic brick Colonial Revival home has been thoughtfully renovated from the inside out with move-in-ready updates—its 1940s architecture and character preserved, while its systems, finishes, and flow elevated for today's living. Light and open living room with expensive windows Enjoy the four seasons as the trees outside your windows shift from bright green to burnished gold and settle by the wood-burning fireplace as cooler days arrive. Every season brings its own moment of beauty here, and this 3-bed, 3-bath, 2,592-sqft home is ready for you to make them all your own. The floor plan balances privacy and functionality. On the main level, the front door opens to an L-shaped staircase with its original balustrade and graceful curtailed step framed by an arched threshold. To the left, the living room welcomes you with sunlight filtering through tall windows, gleaming hardwood floors, and an anchoring wood-burning fireplace that feels traditional and timeless. Behind the timeless façade, the home blends historic grace with modern ease. Every essential system and surface has been refreshed—from the 2021 furnace, A/C, and water heater to the fully remodeled kitchen and Ecobee smart thermostat system. The home offers warmth, craftsmanship, and quiet beauty. Plaster detailing, crown molding, and built-in nooks speak to the era's character, while subtle updates bring comfort and longevity. Even the smallest elements, the built-ins, the mail slot, and the telephone inset reflect enduring care and preservation. With its wainscoting and graceful chandelier, the dining room opens naturally toward the remodeled kitchen, which showcases quartz countertops, a Wolf gas range, thoughtful cabinetry with pull-outs and soft-close drawers, and a brick accent wall lending warmth and authenticity. Vaulted ceilings with exposed beams lift the space, while the eat-in nook's cozy window seat overlooks the front yard's mature landscaping, which bursts into vivid gold and red each fall. A main-level bedroom and full bath offer convenience for guests or single-level living, while upstairs, two dormered bedrooms with built-ins and angled ceilings capture a sense of coziness and charm and bookend another full bath. Both bathrooms blend modern tile and fixtures with classic styling. The basement extends the home's versatility with a generous flex space easily accommodating a family room, gym, or studio. A bonus room provides privacy for an office or creative workspace, complemented by an full bathroom and a tidy laundry area with modern appliances and ample storage. Outside, a covered deck with white rafters filters sunlight in shifting patterns and connects directly to the kitchen, creating an easy flow for indoor-outdoor entertaining. Beyond, the property opens into a private brick and flagstone courtyard framed by redwood planters, lush vines, and mature trees. An ivy-covered pergola anchors the outdoor dining area, while a dog run tucked along the side yard offers convenience without sacrificing aesthetics. Each space invites use across the seasons—morning coffee in the dappled shade, dinner gatherings under string lights, or quiet reading beside the raised garden beds. The detached two-car brick garage provides extra storage or potential workshop space, continuing the home's story of function meeting form. Great location
