Description
Highland Park is the setting for this beautifully updated home with Craftsman charm, a generous layout, and plans for a future ADU. Built in 1905, the light-filled haven delights with high ceilings, hardwood floors, and whimsical floral wallpaper; character details abound, including restored original windows and a statement fireplace anchoring the living room. The formal dining room is an airy space with a bay window, wainscoting, a built-in buffet alcove, and a set of pocket doors that transform the layout. The sunny kitchen is freshly remodeled with new cabinetry, a matching appliance suite, and checkered floors. Four bedrooms include an ensuite primary with French doors opening to the yard; both bathrooms are finished with terrazzo floors. The flat, fenced yard is expansive and full of possibilities, with lovely views of the San Gabriel Mountains and a garage ready for storage or a future ADU. Amenities include solar, central AC/heat, laundry, and many system updates. Located in the desirable Highland Park HPOZ, nearby favorites include Obet & Del's, Lumens, Mendocino Farms, Jeni's Ice Cream, and Cookbook Market, with easy access to DTLA and Pasadena via the Metro A Line and 110 Freeway.
