About This Home
As of June 2025Step into timeless charm and modern elegance with this beautifully updated Craftsman home, nestled in a serene and historic neighborhood in the heart of Whittier. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath treasure has been thoughtfully reimagined, seamlessly blending modern upgrades with the home’s original character and allure. Inside, you’ll find double-pane windows that bathe the space in natural light, brand-new LVP flooring that adds warmth and durability, and a cutting-edge HVAC system by Rheem to ensure year-round comfort. Every corner of this home has been meticulously upgraded, from the new electrical and plumbing systems to the sleek new appliances and custom kitchen cabinetry. Elegant fixtures and carefully curated wallpaper accents pay homage to the home’s vintage roots while offering the sophistication of modern living. But the history of this home is what truly sets it apart. Once the residence of Mady Comfort—a celebrated jazz and lounge singer of the 1940s—this property holds echoes of a glamorous past. Known as the girlfriend of jazz legend Duke Ellington, Mady is rumored to be the muse behind his iconic 1953 classic, “Satin Doll.” She also played herself in the movie “Kiss Me Deadly.” Imagine living where a piece of music history resided, in a home that harmonizes beauty, legacy, and comfort. Don’t miss your chance to own a piece of Whittier’s rich history, where every detail has been lovingly restored and every update thoughtfully designed. This home is more than a place to live—it’s a story waiting to be continued.
