Detailed Introduction Of This Home
A Rare Opportunity to own a Graciously Restored & Uniquely Authentic Spanish Duplex in Mid-City. Lovingly cared for with excellent tenants in place in both units. Proudly perched on the highest hill (of the street and neighborhood!) - with beautiful San Gabriel Mountain Views from upstairs.This is THE ONE you've waited for. Classic 1930's original character throughout, fresh updated art-deco kitchen, and great natural light from every room. The property offers 2-units (upstairs unit / downstairs unit configuration), and each unit has 3 Bedrooms. Located on a beautiful tree-lined street with easy access to Miracle Mile, Culver City Arts District, The Grove, Cedar Sinai, and I-10. There's a true romance in original Cal-Spanish architecture, and this property certainly doesn't disappoint: From the patina of the original courtyard fountain to the authentic grid pattern in the living room windows, character abounds. Original bronzed hardware, door handles, and oak hardwood floors. The kitchens were updated respectfully (around 2002) with tasteful white/black art-deco tiling, a classic Wedgwood stove, and period-appropriate linoleum flooring. Newer appliances include BOSCH dishwasher, fridge and new washer & dryers. System upgrades from 2002 include furnace, bolted foundation, main copper line, electrical upgrade (again, all circa 2002). Newer hot water heater on Feb 2024.The native gardens have been meticulously curated and provide an incredibly lush, yet intimate atmosphere. The Spanish architecture and curb appeal are framed perfectly by verdant mature plants (including a proudly fruitful key lime tree in the front). The backyard experience is breathtaking, with custom garden boxes, built-in seating, 90-year old pine tree, and a custom lattice trellis for your future wine grapes or star jasmine. The private gardener's "potting" room is adjacent to the 2 single car garages. Mid-City is a close-knit, well-known historic Angeleno community in prime location between Downtown LA and the Westside. Many restaurants, cafes, and shops all around near Pico Blvd, West Adams, Culver City, Miracle Mile and West 3rd too. This is the one you hoped would hit the market - an incredibly well-preserved, lovingly cared for architectural property with charm, character, and great style.
