This 1920s Spanish bungalow perfectly balances vintage charm, such as original mahogany floors and crystal knobs, with high-end modern essentials including a 2024 roof, Viking appliances, and energy-efficient Anderson windows.
The property features a detached bonus room with a fireplace and a separate garage/workshop, providing rare flexibility for a home office, gym, or creative studio beyond the primary living square footage.
The rooftop deck, a primary feature for enjoying the property's views, is unpermitted, which may create complications regarding financing, appraisals, or future city compliance.
The energy system is under a solar lease rather than being owned outright, requiring the buyer to assume a long-term contractual financial obligation as part of the purchase.
Located in the highly desirable Upper Vista Del Oro neighborhood of San Pedro, this stunning Spanish bungalow blends timeless 1920s charm with modern upgrades and an unmistakable Old Hollywood feel.
