This Charming Spanish Casita is a Strong Value Opportunity, listed at $1,149,000—positioned well below the $1,236,127 Fair Market Value by 7%. This valuation gap provides $87,127 in Instant Equity for buyers. In Move-in Ready Condition, the home features a Viking kitchen, city light views, and a versatile detached studio. Located near top-rated schools like Clifford Street Elementary, it balances historic character with modern systems. This is an ideal acquisition for Owner-Occupants or creative professionals seeking a high-upside Echo Park sanctuary.
Property is move-in ready.
This 1926 Spanish casita is well-maintained and move-in ready. The kitchen features high-end Viking appliances and updated cabinetry, and the home includes modern systems like AC/heat. While it retains period charm, the renovations and system updates appear to be within the 5-15 year range, making it functional and well-preserved.
Situated on a quiet cul-de-sac near Elysian Park and trendy local staples like Bacetti and Cookbook Market, this home offers a highly desirable, walkable lifestyle in a scenic neighborhood.
The inclusion of a detached work studio with dedicated AC provides valuable flexible space for a home office, gym, or creative retreat, which is a significant asset for modern buyers.
This 1926 Spanish casita maintains its historic charm with period details and Saltillo tile, complemented by a balcony offering beautiful views of the city lights and surrounding hills.
At just 1,056 square feet for a three-bedroom configuration, the living spaces and bedrooms may feel cramped for families or those accustomed to more expansive layouts.
The 1,755 square foot lot is quite restrictive for a single-family residence, offering limited yard space and very little room for future footprint expansion or significant landscaping.
Tucked above the treetops on a cul-de-sac, this charming 1926 Spanish casita with a detached work studio is a dreamy find in scenic Echo Park. The open layout is warm and sunny, with wood floors and many period details throughout. The bright kitchen provides ample storage, a Viking range, and a colorful tile backsplash; the floor is finished with Saltillo tile and the flow is easy to the side patio for morning coffee. All three bedrooms enjoy access to enchanting outdoor space; the upper-level bedrooms share a hall bath and a balcony overlooking city lights, and the lower-level primary suite is a serene retreat with a walk-in closet and a spacious tiled bath. Unwind in the lush, beautifully curated yard, with several zones for alfresco brunches and starlit dinner parties. The detached work studio with AC is ready for an office, gym, yoga retreat, or storage. Amenities include AC/heat, laundry, and driveway parking. The best of Echo Park is right outside your door, with Bacetti, Quarter Sheets, and Cookbook Market nearby, along with hiking trails and the green expanses of Elysian Park.
