Hus for Køb i East Los Angeles, USA

A gem in East Los Angeles: this 1920s Spanish revival home with so much original charm also has all systems updated! Introduced by symmetrical triple arch windows, a deco stepped roofline and a flattened arch covered entry, this single level home enjoys a generous front sitting porch and wood front door with speakeasy detail. Inside, gleaming refinished hardwood floors, plaster walls, draped arch and decorative fireplace with coveted Batchelder hearth define this character home. Unique details like cornflower frosted glass sconces and acanthus rope trim grace the living and dining rooms, as well as coved recessed tray ceilings - so rare to find these special elements intact! The formal dining room flows into a cozy breakfast nook with built-in buffet, then the updated kitchen with adjacent laundry room. The modern oversize stainless sink in the kitchen is a fun contrast to the enameled utility sink and whimsical carved mirror in the laundry. Bathrooms are updated with a mix of contemporary sinks and fixtures with original and newer tile work. Three nicely sized bedrooms offer ample natural light, the primary with sliding doors direct to the backyard. Outdoor spaces include a covered dining patio, open paved space, and a shady place to relax under a beautiful oak tree. An added bonus: the two car garage is wired for electrical, offering great potential for a bonus studio/work from home space! With close proximity to shopping and restaurants on Whittier Blvd and access to freeways and transportation, this is a special opportunity to own a piece of architecture in historic Los Angeles.
