About This Home
As of July 2025Timeless Victorian with Downtown Views | 1279 Bellevue Ave, Angelino Heights Perched on a serene hillside in storied Angelino Heights, this 1886 Victorian masterpiece gazes out over the glittering skyline of Downtown Los Angeles and invites you into one of the city's most soulful and creatively charged neighborhoods. Angelino Heights is a living postcard of L.A. history. As one of the city's first suburbs and a protected Historic Preservation Overlay Zone (HPOZ), it's famed for its jaw-dropping collection of Victorian and early Craftsman homes often seen in films, TV, and music videos. Here, past and present blur: vintage street lamps light your path, while just down the hill, artists, filmmakers, musicians, and creatives shape the city's future in buzzing DTLA and Echo Park.Inside, the home unfolds with light and grace original 19th-century windows, high ceilings, and four to five generous bedrooms make space for art, family, work, or however your life flows. Once used as a duplex, the flexible layout offers opportunities for a single-family sanctuary, a creative live/work compound, or multi-generational living. Two full baths (featuring classic clawfoot tubs) and two additional half-baths offer comfort with vintage flair, while the spacious, updated kitchen balances period elegance with modern functionality. Outside, a private backyard offers room to garden, gather, or simply recharge under the California sky. The detached garage is ripe for reinvention as a bonus studio, office, or future ADU. Freshly painted and filled with heart, this home is more than a property it's a canvas for a soulful, inspired life in one of L.A.'s most iconic enclaves.
