About This Home
As of June 2025Newly renovated and move-in-ready California bungalow in the vibrant heart of Mar Vista, where comfort, modern style, and prime location unite effortlessly! The interior boasts a contemporary design with newly refinished maple hardwood floors, fresh paint, and abundant natural light streaming through redwood beams, creating a warm and inviting ambiance. Two well-appointed bedrooms off the entry flow into an open-concept living area with a sleek modern kitchen, featuring retro-inspired Big Chill appliances that combine vintage charm with modern performance, all paired with quartz countertops, perfect for both entertaining and everyday living. The primary bedroom suite offers a private retreat with a walk-in closet and a spa-like bath showcasing a new vanity, rain-head shower, and freestanding soaking tub. Step directly from your suite onto the outdoor deck, ideal for morning coffee or al fresco dining. The lush exterior features vibrant succulents, producing passion fruit vines, a lemon tree, and a distinctive artichoke plant, lined by mature privacy hedges. The newly refreshed detached garage was previously converted into a flexible-use studio with a loft, bath, and workshop area, offering a versatile creative space (buyer to verify permit status). Gated parking and ample permitted street parking add convenience. Ideally located just minutes from Marina del Rey, Venice, Culver City, and boutique shopping on Abbot Kinney, as well as award-winning dining and neighborhood favorites like Rainbow Acres Natural Foods and the Mar Vista Farmers Market, this home offers the perfect balance of peaceful living and easy access to everything Los Angeles has to offer.
