Description
Situated on a quiet, tree-lined corner lot in the heart of El Sereno, this well-maintained three-bedroom, two-bathroom home offers bright interiors, comfortable living spaces, and a welcoming atmosphere. A fully fenced front yard, framed by sculptural cactus, blooming rose bushes, and mature landscaping, creates both privacy and inviting curb appeal, while a charming front porch provides a warm introduction to the home. Inside, natural light fills the spacious living room, an open setting for everyday living and entertaining. Two generously sized bedrooms with custom-built shelving are located off the main hallway, along with a full bathroom and convenient hallway storage. The designated dining area connects seamlessly to the galley kitchen, which offers plenty of cabinet space, new appliances, with washer & dryer tucked away at the end. Set privately at the rear of the home, the primary suite includes an ensuite bathroom with jacuzzi tub, and direct access to the backyard thorough sliding glass doors. Cafe lights create a relaxed setting outdoors, where an enclosed sitting area just off the kitchen extends the living space. A storage shed with room for tools, gardening supplies, or outdoor equipment, while the detached one-car garage, adjacent carport, and driveway provide ample off-street parking. Located in one of Northeast LA's most established neighborhoods, the home is just minutes from local favorites including Evil Tacos, Secret Pizza, Highland Cafe, and Lil East Coffee. The location offers easy access to the restaurants, cafes, and neighborhood character that continue to make El Sereno one of the area's hidden gems. Upgrades include new HVAC and a retrofitted foundation.
