Property is move-in ready.
While built in 1942, the home has undergone significant renovations within the last 5-15 years. The kitchen features modern grey shaker cabinetry, quartz countertops, and subway tile backsplashes, while the bathrooms have been updated with contemporary large-format tiling and fixtures. The presence of dual-pane windows and updated flooring throughout indicates a well-maintained, move-in ready condition.
The property boasts exceptional hilltop views of the Los Angeles skyline and city lights, offering a premium sense of atmosphere and value that is highly sought after in the El Sereno area.
Featuring a long driveway that accommodates up to four vehicles plus a one-car garage, this home provides a significant advantage in a hillside neighborhood where street parking is notoriously limited.
The inclusion of a dedicated office/flex space in addition to the two bedrooms caters perfectly to the modern work-from-home lifestyle or creative professional.
Originally built in 1942, the property may require ongoing maintenance or modernization of older systems to meet contemporary efficiency and building standards.
At 1,192 square feet with a loft-style primary bedroom, the home's compact size and open configuration may lack the privacy and space desired by larger families.
This hilltop haven is designed for those seeking privacy without sacrificing the pulse of the city, featuring breathtaking, panoramic views of the Los Angeles skyline that shift beautifully from sunrise to city lights. Tucked away in the hills of El Sereno, this charming home offers exceptional privacy and seclusion while being just minutes from Downtown Los Angeles, South Pasadena, and Alhambra. The home features a loft-style primary bedroom filled with natural light, creating an airy and inviting retreat. The heart of the home is defined by an expansive, airy kitchen and living area. Large windows frame the outdoor scenery, inviting natural light to pour across the open floor plan. One bedroom loft-style has a full bathroom and plenty of closet space. A second bedroom is conveniently located downstairs, along with an office or flex space ideal for working from home, a gym, or creative studio. Outdoor living shines with front, back, and side patios, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The property is adorned with fruit trees and offers beautiful sunrise and sunset views. The long driveway provides convenience for up to parking 4 cars (with a one car garage) which is a goldmine for the narrow streets where parking is limited. Ideally located near Ascot Hills, Debs Pond, and Elephant Hill, this home blends peaceful hillside living with close proximity to city conveniences. The home is minutes from the freeway, Highland Park, South Pasadena, Alhambra and the downtown Asian shops and Eatery. OFFERS DUE 5/18 at 5PM
