About This Home

As of July 2021

This 1926 Spanish home is located in a prime Highland Park neighborhood close to the Metro Gold Line and the shops and restaurants of York Blvd. Entering through the front gate, you are immediately ensconced in lush landscape, meandering paths and ivy covered walls that create a sanctuary from the outside world. A darling tiled front porch, perfect for morning coffee, welcomes you to the front door. On entering the home, the large living room features 13' high barrel ceilings and is centered on a handsome fireplace. Large windows make the space light and bright and showcase a northern view of the mountains. Wide arched doorways lead through to the dining room, with unique crown moldings, and into the updated kitchen creating great flow throughout. The kitchen features Caesarstone countertops, subway tile, a center island and stainless steel appliances. Attached to the kitchen there is a lovely breakfast nook (great flux space) that opens out to the front porch. There are three bedrooms including a nicely sized primary bedroom suite with private bath and ample storage. Both bathrooms have been tastefully updated with subway tiles, wood floors and modern fixtures. The converted garage offers a great bonus space for guests, an art studio or an office, with a pretty shaded patio space for outdoor dining, entertaining and relaxing.
