About This Home
Welcome to 505 N Ave 65, a beautifully updated Craftsman retreat in the heart of Highland Park. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home—with a detached ADU—seamlessly blends timeless character with thoughtful modern upgrades, honoring its original era while bringing a fresh, contemporary feel to every soulful space. From the beautifully landscaped, low-maintenance walkway to the inviting front porch made for slow, sunny afternoons, the exterior welcomes you with effortless charm. Step inside to discover custom wood windows, push-button vintage-style lighting, a tankless water heater, newer AC, high-end fixtures, and a timeless soaking tub—just a few of the many curated updates. Beyond the kitchen, double wood French doors lead to a secluded backyard haven framed by lush hedging and anchored by a wood deck perfect for dining or gathering outdoors. The detached ADU—fully equipped with a remodeled bathroom—offers endless possibilities, whether you need a studio, office, guest space, or a private creative hideaway. Located only blocks from the well-loved cafés, shops, and eateries on York Blvd and short distance to Eagle Rock and South Pasadena , this home combines classic design, modern enhancements, and a prime walkable setting. 505 N Ave 65 stands as a quintessential Highland Park treasure: timeless, enchanting, and full of heart. Ideally situated for commuters, the home provides quick access to major freeways, local transit, and nearby thoroughfares, making daily travel a breeze.
