Description
Your story starts here. Welcome to this beautifully updated California Bungalow offering 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms in Jefferson Park, part of historic West Adams. Fragrant drought-tolerant landscaping creates a welcoming arrival to a home filled with warmth, character, and thoughtful improvements. The open-concept living and dining areas feature newly installed European engineered wood floors and vintage light fixtures. The kitchen includes quartz countertops, a designer tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and an attached service porch with a utility sink that is perfect for cleaning off your clogs after a day of gardening or cleaning your paint brushes after a day of creating. Two bedrooms share a beautifully renovated bath, while a pass-through bedroom leads to the private primary suite. Milk-glass closet doors reveal generous storage, barn doors open to a remodeled ensuite bath, and the primary bedroom offers direct access to the garden. Outdoors, a gigantic, mature avocado tree yields an extraordinary crop of delicious avocados enough to keep you in business at the farmers market. Raised garden beds and extensive patio space frame a super-private yard with room for a pool, all surrounded by custom horizontal wood fencing. The detached one-car garage offers flexible space for a studio, workshop, home gym, or storage and is well suited for a potential ADU conversion. Additional improvements include a newer roof, updated electrical and plumbing, a tankless water heater, and a solar system. Located approximately 0.8 miles, or about a 17-minute walk, from Expo/Crenshaw Station, with access to both the Metro E and K Lines. The home is also a short distance from USC's University Park Campus, Exposition Park, and neighborhood favorites including Maydan Market, Tartine, Taqueria Los Anaya, Highly Likely, Fleur et Sel, Johnny's West Adams, Divine Glow, Little Room, Damn I Miss Paris, and Chulita. A special opportunity to put down roots, entertain, garden, and enjoy the best of Jefferson Park and West Adams.
