About This Home

As of July 2022

Tucked behind citrus trees, amongst a palm tree lined backdrop sits this beautifully reimagined modern bungalow in El Sereno. Step through a wooden gate to the fully fenced in front yard complete with drought tolerant landscaping, fire pit and Adirondack chairs. The charming front porch welcomes you into light-filled living spaces that offer a fantastic floor plan. The living room and dining area flow seamlessly to the open kitchen, perfectly designed with butcher block countertops, breakfast bar, subway tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances. The home has 3 spacious bedrooms with ample closet space and 2 updated bathrooms. A rare separate laundry room provides extra storage and access to the additional magical outdoor spaces. An awesome tiled patio and adjoining wooden deck with a sun shade canopy and side yard offer endless possibilities for weekend brunches and dinner parties with friends. In addition, the property features the perfect home office - a private detached bonus space with concrete flooring and French door that opens to the beautiful wood deck. Two side-by-side driveway parking spaces. Updated systems including central AC + heat. Easy access to Highland Park, Downtown LA, and South Pasadena. A little oasis in the city!
