About This Home
As of October 2021This Historic Craftsman Home built-in 1912 is one of the first commissions by architect Henry J Knauer. The two-story 2,268 sq ft C.M. Church house (HCM No. 389) was initially built for banker Clyde M Church and sits on an 8,000 sq ft lot in highly desirable Highland Park only a block from Figueroa Blvd's trendy restaurants, cafes, and shops. The 4 bedroom, 2 bath house captivates with a cozy covered front porch built with Arroyo Stone and mature landscaping in the front yard. Enter the beautifully preserved and updated interior to discover lots of natural light; a traditional flowing floorplan; a mix of original hardwood floors and updated laminate flooring; a remodeled kitchen; exceptional woodwork with wainscoting, and a delightfully hidden prohibition cabinet in the formal dining room. Entertainment-ready and suitable for large gatherings, the spacious, fully enclosed backyard features pavers, artificial turf, drought-resistant plants, and a variety of fruit and nut trees, including pecans and peaches. All four generously sized bedrooms are located upstairs, with two bedrooms having access to the large deck that overlooks the backyard and an updated full bathroom with a clawfoot tub. Major system upgrades have been completed within the last 6 years, including a gated driveway for easy off-street parking, 200-amp electrical panel, tankless water heater fully paid off solar panels, and new sewer line. This exceptional home is ready for its new homeowner to continue lovingly restore and upgrade the house. As it is a historical monument, it is an excellent Mills Act qualifier. Come and see this magnificent piece of Los Angeles' rich architectural history!
