Quintessential LA living. This home is a treasure, having mostly stayed true to its architectural origins. This 3 bedroom 2 bath 1911 Craftsman beauty welcomes you with a lovely front yard and two olive trees, a fitting symbol of the peace and tranquility you'll enjoy on this quiet street in prime North-of-York Highland Park. Come up the wide front porch, complete with period-appropriate square tapered columns topped off with a sweet beadboard ceiling. As you enter the home, you're greeted by other Craftsman details such as original built-ins, custom woodwork, and a fireplace in the dining room. Through the grand arch, a large light-filled living room awaits, featuring a gorgeous picture window and numerous sash windows. Here you get the best of both worlds - fabulous light combined with privacy. The primary suite includes a sitting area, cedar-lined closet, brand new bathroom and French doors leading to your private Saltillo-tiled patio/balcony, where you can enjoy the sanctuary of the surrounding hillsides, replete with mourning doves and red-tailed hawks. The kitchen has a breakfast area, tiled counters and original cabinets with plenty of room for more.
