Property Description
Welcome to this sun-filled 1921 home that has the good fortune of being elevated within the thriving heart of Highland Park a spacious 2-bedroom, 2-bath retreat where timeless character meets thoughtful modern updates and calm garden landscaping. Raised above the street with charismatic curb appeal, the open living and dining rooms are bathed in natural light and framed by expansive mountain views, creating a sense of peace that feels worlds away while being just moments from the vibrant energy and desirable amenities of both York and Figueroa. Newly installed warm hardwood floors complement original architectural features. Remodeled kitchen and bathrooms provide the freshness of new, crisp finishes while preserving excellent layout and original detail. French doors open from the terrazzo-tiled kitchen to flow seamlessly onto the terrazzo-tiled deck overlooking the flat yard, inviting tranquil mornings outside with coffee or lively evenings entertaining your guests amidst greenery. The home is uniquely and perfectly placed near some of the neighborhood's most beloved destinations. Bring the best of international city living into the sunshine of Southern California with nearby breakfast at Belle's, morning coffee at Kumquat, lunch at Bub & Grandma's, neighborhood parks, and a wide variety of local dining favorites including Ggiata, Joy, Kitchen Mouse, Highly Likely, Cookbook, HomeState, Villa's Tacos, plus live music at Checker Hall. Then relax in your backyard offering a lush grassy setting anchored by a mature, shade-giving walnut tree and fragrant Spanish lavender with a shared driveway leading to a private garage ideal as a studio, creative workspace, or flexible retreat. Breathtakingly close to all the convenience Highland Park offers yet tucked away enough to remain a peaceful sanctuary, this is the kind of home that rarely comes along soulful, sunlit, and connected to the best of California living.
