Description

Steeped in the architectural romance of the 1920s, this Craftsman style bungalow offers a rare opportunity to restore a piece of Los Angeles history. Behind a picturesque gabled roof and manicured curb appeal, 1,611 square feet living space awaits a visionary touch. While the home has been thoughtfully preserved with energy-efficient windows, plumbing improvements, a tankless water heater, and fresh exterior paint, it remains a "reimagining bliss"a character-filled sanctuary ready to be polished into a modern masterpiece. The interior harmonizes vintage soul with a functional floor plan. Original built-in cabinetry and architectural flourishes anchor the social core, where a graceful living room and formal dining area flow seamlessly toward a delightful kitchen. In a nod to traditional craftsmanship, the "wing" design tucks four spacious bedrooms away for ultimate privacy. The true excitement lies in what's possible. Set on a sprawling 6,078-square-foot lot, the expansive backyard is a private stage for your grandest ambitions be it an organic garden, an alfresco entertainment retreat, or a high-value ADU. Strategically positioned for long-term appreciation, you are minutes from the K-Line and the transformative Hollywood Park expansion. As the neighborhood readies itself for the global spotlight of the 2026 World Cup and 2028 Olympics, this home stands as a premier investment in one of LA's most vibrant corridors. Bring your designer's eye and claim your stake in this neighborhood's bright future.
