On a storied street lined with century-old homes, this 1913 Craftsman celebrates the best of LA's past and future. This lovingly restored 3 Bed|2 Bath, 1,572-square-foot residence is nestled between Leimert Park and West Adams, placing you in the heart of two of the city's most vibrant and welcoming communities. Upon entry, you step into a softly lit living room anchored by an original fireplace. Through French doors to your right, you'll find a brightly lit home office or guest space with a garden view. At the center of the home, the chef's kitchen sets the stage for hosting and gathering under soaring 14-foot ceilings, a massive skylight, and a gracious breakfast nook. A professional Bluestar range, Bosch dishwasher, and Fisher Paykel refrigerator complement custom Cletile encaustic tile, white concrete countertops, and stainless and brass fixtures that add warmth and texture. The primary suite serves as a private retreat, complete with a walk-in closet and a serene ensuite bath with a sky-framing skylight, blending classic craftsmanship with modern design. With two additional bedrooms and a second full bathroom, the home's layout is designed for flexibility, offering room for work, play, or guests without compromising flow. Sunlight filters through walls of windows, casting a warm glow on original details and thoughtfully chosen finishes. French doors open to a hardwood deck with a built-in cedar hot tub or plunge pool, custom benches, and an outdoor shower. The drought-tolerant backyard doubles as an alfresco dining space, complete with a built-in kitchen featuring a barbecue, stainless countertops, refrigerator, and wood-fired pizza oven under the shade of three mature olive trees. The fully reimagined 270-square-foot flex space serves as a workshop or studio, with exposed Douglas Fir beams, eastern-facing skylights, top-coated concrete floors, and mini-split HVAC. Wired for multiple workstations and a screening area, it is ready for creative ambitions. A welcoming neighborhood with block clubs, book clubs, and active WhatsApp groups surrounds you. Just minutes from the Coliseum, LAFC, Exposition Park's museums and rose garden, and dual-language preschools, the home offers exceptional convenience. Centrally located to DTLA, Culver City, and the beaches, South LA Cafe and Fuegos LA are only a short stroll away. Every detail of this home invites connection, craftsmanship, and ease. Timeless architecture meets a life well lived, equal parts intimate retreat and entertainer's paradise, in one of Los Angeles' most dynamic neighborhoods.
