About this home

El Sereno hillside bungalow with sustainable features and views. Nestled in the hills of El Sereno, this re-imagined bungalow is the perfect retreat from the bustling city. When you arrive, you feel the privacy and tranquility of the hills surrounding you. Upon entering the home, you are greeted by a high pitched ceiling that expands the space and makes it feel light and airy. The layout is efficient and well laid out, feeling larger than the actual square footage. Both bathrooms have been updated with newer tile and finishes. From the primary bedroom, there are expansive sliding doors opening to a well curated garden. Outside, there are many pockets to enjoy the California sun, including a large front patio area, perfect for dining al fresco, and a quiet moment in the rear garden overlooking the hills. The home is perfect for an ecocentric lifestyle with paid off solar, a greywater system, edible garden with raised garden beds, Passion Fruit, Orange, Fig, Kumquat and Meyer Lemon - to name a few, as well as carefully chosen, low water use/low maintenance California Native plants. Although you may feel a world away, you are just moments from a coffee shop - lil' East - , a wine shop, lil'Cans & Bottles, the newly opened Hermon's restaurant, great hiking and near Highland Park, Alhambra, South Pasadena and Downtown LA.
