Situated one exit away from DTLA off the 101 freeway in the heart of Boyle Heights and in one of its most view-friendly streets just outside of Downtown LA. This property stands as a testament to the neighborhood's rich history and promising future. Escape run of the mill and rushed back to market properties as this one has not been on the market for over 21 years. The 4 bedroom is also for lease at $4160/monthly. Lease or buy whichever occurs first. The 3 bedroom occupied by long term tenants. Immerse yourself in a living masterpiece where historic architectural features harmonize seamlessly with contemporary conveniences. The 4 bedroom side of duplex professionally updated, remodeled and reimagined with the services of both an architect (kitchen and garage) and also a designer (colors, wallpaper and all else) were engaged to offer a unique blend of old-world charm and modern sophistication. As you enter the front door, be greeted by the warm glow of new lighting fixtures perfectly complementing the timeless design of the home. Experience the allure of refurbished hardwood floors meticulously restored in the stairs, living and dining room areas leading you through rooms framed by wood moldings that have been painstakingly scraped, restored, and re-varnished to breathe life back into their exquisite craftsmanship echoing the elegance of a bygone era.
