About This Home

As of January 2016

If you're looking to plant roots in a bright, beautiful home overflowing with character, this 2 bed 1 bath charmer located at 8823 Birchleaf Avenue in Downey is just right. This home is the perfect combination of modern and vintage. It was built in 1949 and retains many of its original design elements: gorgeous tile work in the kitchen, a covered back patio and convenient built-in storage throughout the house. As far as modern elements, what's more of-the-moment than going solar? This house comes with roof mounted solar panels that you can be proud of for years to come.
The lush front lawn leads to a welcoming porch and into the sunny living room. It's full of windows- you'll love waking to natural sunlight and summer breezes. The kitchen is open and full of impeccably preserved period details. The two bedrooms are cozy and welcoming- sure to give you the best sleep of your life. The bathroom is bathed in sunlight and is the perfect place to get ready for the first day (and many more) of your new life.
The home's backyard is a peaceful retreat with mature citrus trees, and a healthy lawn. It's a great place to entertain or to just relax. The attached one car garage and open street parking provide convenience and security.
