This home is a fantastic opportunity for renovation, personalization, and potential for ADU. The sunny lemon-yellow front door, flanked by striking blue columns, greets you from the expansive wooded front porch, where drought-tolerant plantings line the walkway like a natural red carpet. Stepping inside, you're welcomed by a flexible 4+2 layout (tax records show 3+1 with 1,524 square feet). The high ceilings and hardwood floors set the stage for a life well-lived, while the open floorplan allows the decorative fireplace to act as a charming divider between the dining room and the mint-green kitchen. With a blend of vintage charm and modern convenience, the kitchen features new appliances, including a dishwasher, stove, refrigerator, washer, and dryer. Other upgrades include central HVAC and electrical upgrade. Adding a touch of whimsy, a non-permitted spiral staircase ascends to a non-permitted finished attic, offering a quirky nook full of potential. The front full bathroom is a nod to a bygone era, featuring a clawfoot tub, surrounded by tile walls of green and white. From the middle bedroom, a covered exterior porch beckonsan ideal spot for morning coffee or evening reflections. Storage is plentiful, with a separate garage and a lower-level storage area providing ample space for all your belongings. The garden is a verdant marvel, home to wild lavender bushes, ancient agave, aloe plants, and fruit-bearing trees like apple and lemon. Raised beds with tomato plants and a rabbit hutch add a touch of rustic charm. The expansive rear patio is an inviting haven, ideally suited for outdoor dining and leisurely gatherings. Stairs cascade down from the patio, flanked by river rock walls, leading gracefully to a wooden deck and a quaint decorative wooden bridge. This serene oasis, nestled amidst the city's hustle and bustle in historic Angeleno Heights, feels like a secret retreat. Located just around the corner from Echo Park Lake and down the street from Sunset Junction, this home sits at the cultural heart of the Silver Lake community.
