An incredible opportunity for home ownership with immediate rental income in the heart of Los Angeles. This extensively updated and beautifully maintained Spanish-style duplex is located in the close-knit residential community of Longwood Highlands, just south of Brookside and Hancock Park. Nestled behind two gorgeous Jacaranda trees, you'll enter from the charming front porch into the generously sized living room of the owner's unit which features a decorative fireplace and a wall of windows, flooding the space with natural light. An oversized, arched opening connects the living room with an equally sunny and spacious dining room. The kitchen is both charming and functional with Spanish-style tile and stainless steel appliances. The two bedrooms both feature large and built-out closets. The hallway features more built-in storage and an additional flex space can be used as an office, nursery, storage, or potentially be converted to a second bathroom. The upstairs unit is almost identical in layout and condition. Both light-filled units feature hardwood floors throughout, central heat and air, in-unit laundry and access to the private and fully gated backyard. Two garages at the back of the property offer space for storage, a home gym, a potential ADU conversion, or parking for a compact car. Other recent upgrades to the property include lining of the sewer, a partially new tile roof, and a permitted level 2 EV charger. Enjoy the annual block party put on by the neighborhood and get ready for a cheerful and active Halloween! All this with easy access to Sprouts, Target, Ralphs, Starbucks, not to mention some of the city's most incredible parks and restaurants! Located ~25 minutes from DTLA, Culver City or Beverly Hills, calling this home will make for an easy commute!
