Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1924 and described as a 'time capsule,' this property has not been on the market in 30 years and shows significant age. The interior features stained carpeting, a highly dated kitchen with exposed plumbing, and vintage bathrooms that require a full rehab to meet modern standards.
Situated in the sought-after Adams Hill artistic enclave, the property offers a quintessential hillside lifestyle with close proximity to Eagle Rock, Atwater Village, and DTLA.
The home features a permitted addition that expanded the kitchen and dining areas, providing a more spacious and functional layout than typical bungalows of this era.
Marketed as a 'blank canvas' with 'good bones,' this long-held family home offers a rare opportunity for a modern restoration while retaining its authentic 1920s character.
At only 860 square feet, the living space is relatively small for the nearly million-dollar price point, which may challenge buyers seeking more room.
As a 'time capsule' that has been in the same family for decades, the home likely requires significant cosmetic updates and modernization to appeal to contemporary tastes.
