About This Home

2306 Effie St is a Storybook compound with a story of its own. At the end of a cul-de-sac, the property consists of a main residence, a guest cottage, gardens, patios, and an outdoor fireplace and kitchen. The entire property is characterized by whimsical, spiritual, and romantic details. Enter the asymmetrical great room through folding glass and iron doors, where the pitched ceiling, unique collection of picture windows, and petite inglenook alongside the fireplace transport you to another time and place. French doors open from the great room onto a generous balcony with views of the Downtown LA skyline. The home is filled with incredible natural light, sunset views, and nooks for reading, writing, painting, and relaxing. The kitchen has been completely and tastefully updated. Tucked below the main residence, a private office or guest room comes with a three-quarter bath. Beneath the detached two car garage is a fully permitted ADU with a private patio, split system heating/cooling, and an updated eat-in kitchen. The expansive backyard is shaded under a canopy of citrus and cedar trees, with pathways and stone steps meandering through a wildflower garden. The cottage's design was featured in the LA Times in 1925 and attributed to Jean-Louis Egasse, a Parisian-born architect regarded as one of the earliest and best-known progenitors of the Storybook style.
