About This Home

As of July 2026

Welcome to 3940 Denker Ave, a rare value-add opportunity in the heart of Los Angeles. This 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom Craftsman-style home offers approximately 1,196 square feet of living space on a 5,490 square foot lot and is ready for its next chapter. Rich with original character, the property features classic wood trim, built-ins, a spacious living and dining area, a large front porch, detached 2-car garage, long driveway, and a generous backyard with plenty of potential. While the home requires significant updating and repairs, it presents an exceptional opportunity for investors, flippers, contractors, or owner-users looking to restore and reimagine a classic Los Angeles residence.
