Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1936 and described as 'nearly original' in condition, the kitchen and bath are likely dated and exceed the 20-year threshold. While the home features excellent system upgrades including a newer Spanish tile roof, Andersen dual-pane windows, and solar panels, the interior requires modernization to meet current standards.
This 1930s Spanish Colonial retains rare authentic details like peg-and-groove floors, coved ceilings, and a magnesite fireplace, offering a level of character and soul highly sought after in the NELA market.
The property seamlessly blends historic charm with modern sustainability, featuring fully paid solar panels, Andersen dual-pane windows, R19 insulation, and an updated Spanish-style tile roof.
With four distinct outdoor living spaces and a lot size capable of accommodating a pool or an ADU, the property offers significant lifestyle versatility and future value-add opportunities.
With only two bedrooms and a single bathroom across 1,176 square feet, the home's smaller footprint may be a constraint for growing families or those requiring a dedicated home office.
While providing panoramic views, the terraced hillside lot can present challenges regarding usable flat yard space and may increase construction complexity for future expansions like a pool or ADU.
Perched in the hills of Glassell Park, this authentic 1930s Spanish Colonial captures breathtaking, explosive views and timeless character rarely found today. Nearly original in condition, this soulful home blends historic charm with thoughtful updates. From the moment you step inside, the craftsmanship speaks for itself. Gleaming hardwood floors, classic peg-and-groove detailing in the living and dining rooms, coved ceilings, carved wood beams, and a stunning magnesite fireplace that anchors the space. Arched doorways and beautifully corbelled ceilings create a warm, architectural flow throughout the home. Outdoor living is just as impressive, offering four distinct spaces designed for both relaxation and entertaining. Enjoy sunsets from the rooftop terrace, unwind on the covered front porch with arched openings, or host gatherings in the brick courtyard with a charming fountain. The terraced backyard is private and serene, with mountain views that create the perfect backdrop for evening sunsets--Buildable lot for a pool or ADU. Additional upgrades include Andersen dual-pane windows, updated Spanish-style tile roofing, R19 insulation, and fully paid solar panels, blending modern efficiency with historic integrity. Located in one of NELA's most sought-after neighborhoods, Glassell Park offers a vibrant mix of creative energy, local coffee shops, trendy restaurants, and neighborhood charm. With easy access to DTLA, Griffith Park, Eagle Rock, Highland Park, Echo Park, and Los Feliz, this is hillside living at its finest. Rare find, not to be missed!
