About This Home

As of December 2020

Located in the historic Montecito Heights neighborhood, this 2-bed, 1-bath open concept home on a large lot is move-in ready! This home's appeal starts at the curb with the welcoming landscaped front yard and continues into the light-filled living room, where the gorgeously stained hardwood oak floors begin and extend throughout the home. The remodeled kitchen features quartz counters, stainless steel appliances, and a great breakfast bar. The bedrooms are large and the bathroom includes a shower over a deep tub. Other upgrades include USB built-in plugs in the kitchen & bedrooms, modern fixtures & hardware, a three-zoned mini split HVAC system, a tankless water heater, an upgraded electrical panel, and newer roof and plumbing. The backyard is enormous and includes concrete patios with two pergolas, making it the ideal place to entertain guests or relax after a long day. A bonanza of fruit trees (mango, fig, pomegranate, guava, orange, lemon, kumquat, black walnut, banana & peach) and a large ready-to-plant vegetable garden provide you with organic nourishment from your own little urban kingdom. With a detached 2-car garage and close to Metro, restaurants, DTLA, Dodger Stadium and more, this charming home is ready for its next owner! Welcome home!
