About this home

In the heart of storied Angelino Heights, this meticulously restored 1907 Craftsman offers the rare opportunity to own a true piece of Los Angeles history without the burden of ongoing maintenance. Fully reimagined by DesignBuildLA, the home was taken down to the studs and rebuilt with all-new exterior siding, interior drywall and finishes, insulation, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical, while carefully preserving the character that makes homes of this era so special. This is a turn-key historic residence, not a project or cosmetic flip, designed to be enjoyed with confidence from day one. Much of the home’s original charm has been thoughtfully retained, including the original 1907 front door and hardware, original street-facing windows, and the interior staircase handrail, which was salvaged and meticulously restored. Spanning over 3,500 square feet, the main residence offers 4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, and a dedicated office, with interiors flooded in natural light. Soaring ceilings, recessed lighting throughout, a wood-burning fireplace, and expansive living and dining areas create an ideal setting for entertaining, hosting friends, or simply enjoying everyday living at scale. The chef’s kitchen is a true centerpiece, featuring striking Viola marble, custom oak cabinetry, handmade tilework, stone-edged details, built-in appliances, and a spacious walk-in pantry. Upstairs, the primary suite serves as a serene retreat with sweeping skyline views of Downtown Los Angeles, the Hollywood Sign, and the Griffith Observatory, along with a private balcony, custom walk-in closet, and a spa-like bath with dual vanities, handmade zellige tile, a freestanding soaking tub, and a separate shower. Outdoors, the home unfolds into a private oasis with a brand-new pool, lush landscaping, and an expansive deck. A detached two-bedroom, one-bath ADU with a full kitchen provides exceptional flexibility for guests, extended family, or additional income. Set within Los Angeles’ first designated suburb and a protected Historic Preservation Overlay Zone (HPOZ), Angelino Heights is known for its iconic Victorian and early Craftsman homes, many immortalized in film and television. Just moments from Echo Park Lake, Silver Lake, and within walking distance of Dodger Stadium, this is your chance to own a meaningful piece of history without sacrificing modern comfort, performance, or peace of mind.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =7405, other record lot size in square feet = 7500. Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 4179, other record living area = 2985. Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 6, other record bedroom count = 4.
Historic Preservation Overlay Zone (HPOZ) Restrictions: While preserving character, HPOZ status can impose strict regulations on future exterior modifications, potentially limiting owner's choices or increasing renovation costs.
High Property Tax Burden: Given the significant list price of nearly $3 million in a desirable Los Angeles neighborhood, prospective buyers should anticipate a substantial annual property tax obligation.
Potential for Stadium-Related Inconveniences: Its proximity and walkability to Dodger Stadium, while convenient for some, may lead to increased traffic, noise, and crowds on game days, which could be a drawback for others.
