About This Home

As of April 2023

You can have it all in Highland Park with this remodeled Cal Bungalow featuring a flat yard, work studio, and easy access to local hotspots. Built in 1924, the home retains a vintage exterior including a covered front porch flanked by drought-tolerant landscaping. Stylishly updated interior space feels airy and bright with high vaulted ceilings, exposed wooden beams and hard surface flooring. The kitchen is well-appointed with a farmhouse sink, brass pulls, tile splash, stainless appliances and wine storage. Three bedrooms include the ensuite Primary, and there's a dreamy detached studio with powder room for your work setup, creative refuge, gym, storage and more. Enjoy central heat + air, and seamless access to the private back yard that will inspire playtime, mealtime and entertaining amid mature fruit trees. Fenced from the street with an electric driveway gate, this home has ample off-street parking and a great location near coffee, dining, markets and nightlife on York Boulevard.
