Description
Step inside and discover the possibilities that exist in this charming tree house tucked away on an expansive 10,286 square foot lot at the base of Mount Washington. The rooms are filled with light and the views off the back showcase lush greenery and mountains in the distance. There are two decks, one on the side of the house and the other on the lower level that looks out over the backyard. Though small in size, there is endless potential for expansion opportunities or if you prefer, you can keep the current footprint and update to your liking. For those with an artistic spirit, this would make a great writing retreat or artist studio but will equally appeal to investors or those who would like to add on to the house. The lot in the back slopes gently downward and if terraced, would make the perfect garden and add even more usable outdoor space. Located in one of Los Angeles' most loved hillside communities and close to the bustle of Highland Park, this is a home rich in character, ready for its next chapter.
