Welcome to your hidden oasis at the base of Mt. Washington, where charm meets modern California living. This stand-alone 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home has been thoughtfully reimagined. Completely gated, the property feels worlds away yet remains right in the heart of NELA. A private driveway behind an automatic gate offers parking for multiple cars, and a gorgeous lemon tree sets a warm, inviting tone upon arrival. Enjoy morning coffee on the front porch or host golden-hour dinners on the expansive back deck. The large, private lot offers plenty of room for all your people, four-legged or otherwise. Inside, tall ceilings, ample windows and beautiful French doors in the living room create a seamless indoor-outdoor flow. With new appliances, windows, an ensuite bedroom, and HVAC, comfort and style come together with ease. A rare find in Northeast LA, this home is private, playful, and full of personality - just minutes from the best of Highland Park, Eagle Rock, and all your favorite NELA trails and cafes.
