About This Home

As of July 2014

Nestled atop the historic neighborhood of Angelino Heights, 847 E. Kensington offers access to the best of LA from the cozy comfort of a restored early-1900s home. Upon entering the front gate you will find a beautifully landscaped front yard, perfect for entertaining or quiet relaxation. The front porch has plenty of room for outdoor lounging and/or dining alfresco.

This post-Victorian home exudes vintage charm with modern sensibilities. The American Foursquare design provides optimal room for modern life with little wasted space. The first floor features a traditional kitchen with brand new appliances (range, refrigerator, dishwasher and washer/dryer), a bathroom (with shower), and a period dining room with built-in cabinetry that opens up to the living room separated by working pocket doors. Up the stairs lie three spacious bedrooms, a bonus office room, and a second bathroom (with a tub and walk-in shower). Two bedrooms have cedar closets. Off the master bedroom is a large balcony that overlooks the front yard facing East Kensington Rd. The home has central AC with dual-zone controls. Ample extra storage is available via the attic and a California basement accessed from the outside. An outdoor parking spot is available in the back on the driveway (shared with the owner's house next door), and street parking is in front.

This is a prized location in Echo Park walking distance from the Lake, perennially cool retail and eateries on Sunset, and Dodger Stadium. Quick freeway access to the 2, 110, 101 and 5 makes a commute that much bearable. Freshly painted and ready for move-in!
