The interior is in mint condition with no maintenance required.
Situated on a rare double lot, the property features a lush 'secret garden' and an oversized grapevine-draped deck, offering exceptional privacy and seamless indoor-outdoor flow in the desirable Mount Washington foothills.
This 1924 bungalow perfectly blends historic character with high-end updates, including a Bertazzoni range, farmhouse sink, and energy-efficient mini-split AC/heat systems.
The inclusion of a functional basement provides essential flexibility for a home office, gym, or studio, significantly maximizing the utility of the 882-square-foot floor plan.
Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =5265, other record lot size in square feet = 2696.
With only one bedroom and one bathroom, the property's appeal is largely restricted to individuals or couples, potentially limiting the resale market compared to multi-bedroom homes.
Priced at approximately $906 per square foot, the property sits at a premium valuation that may be sensitive to appraisal gaps despite the large lot size and quality of finishes.

The bedroom is bright and airy, and the ensuite bath features character built-in shelving. Dotted with mature plantings and trees, the generous yard feels like your own secret garden with countless spaces for hosting and relaxing; the stairs at the rear lead up the hill to enjoy canyon views.
