Nestled in the gentle curves of University Hills, this three-bedroom, two-bathroom home unfolds across 1,114 square feet of beautifully considered living space. From the moment you arrive, you're welcomed by the natural elegance of a wood fence that gracefully encloses the property, offering both privacy and presence. There’s an instant feeling of being tucked away — cozy, serene, and perfectly at ease. Step inside the home, and you're met with a sense of airiness and warmth as sunlight pours through windows, dancing across the open floor plan and lofty ceilings. Throughout the home, designer light fixtures add style, personality, and cohesion to every room, glowing softly in the evening. At the heart of the home, the bespoke kitchen is adorned with handcrafted zellige tile, a custom range hood, and framed by whimsical wallpaper that echoes the lush gardens just beyond the windows. The bathrooms are retreats in themselves — with custom plaster walls, handmade natural stone, and earthy terrazzo tile underfoot. Two secondary bedrooms offer flexible options — perfect for a home office, guest space, or creative studio — each filled with natural light and the right amount of space to invite imagination. The primary suite is quietly set apart for privacy and comfort, with a dedicated en suite bathroom and direct access to a private outdoor sitting area, perfect for morning coffee, golden hour breezes, or stargazing. Outside, the 5,015-square-foot lot is a natural extension of the home’s living space. Thoughtfully terraced gardens, mature fruit trees, and a spacious side deck offer both beauty and utility. A thriving Clematis vine cascades over the pergola, creating a vibrant purple canopy — the ideal setting for afternoon lounging, al fresco dinners, or cozy evenings under the sky. Imagine barbecues that linger into starlit conversations, or movie nights wrapped in blankets and laughter— this is a yard made for memory-making.
While the home feels like a tucked-away haven, it’s perfectly connected where neighbors stroll the winding hills —exchanging smiles and conversations along the way. Cal State LA is minutes away, offering public lectures, performances, and community events at the Luckman Fine Arts Complex. Ascot Hills Park invites you to hike, breathe, and take in panoramic views that remind you just how special this pocket of the city truly is. You're also just minutes from Monterey Park Golf Club, as well as major freeways. Home, sweet yes!
