About this property
Set on a tree-lined block in the heart of Melrose Hill, this thoughtfully updated 1922 Spanish-style condo honors its historic character while embodying contemporary design. Enter through a private stairway into this upper-level two-bedroom residence. A landing area outside the unit's front door allows for a graceful transition home. Once inside, a formal dining room opens to the adjacent living room, where original period details like the Batchelder tile fireplace, built-in bookshelves, and arched doorways are complemented by newly added elements of wainscoting, crown molding, brass light fixtures, and wide-planked hardwood floors. Peekaboo Downtown L.A. views orient you on your quiet block of our iconic city. A spacious powder room sits just off the living room. Beyond this main living space are the kitchen and grand hallway leading to the bedrooms and laundry, with a color-drenched primary positioned at the end of the hall. Across from the guest room is the unit's full bath, which services both bedrooms and features a tub. A laundry room serves as the back entrance, where stairs lead to the unit's driveway and carport. Parking for two vehicles per unit is permitted. This fourplex is a Tenancy-in-Common ownership structure, well established and managed since its inception in 2019. Major improvements to the building and unit include new electrical, sewer line, plumbing, and roof. Additionally, the unit has a newer washer and dryer, water heater, kitchen appliances, and HVAC mini-splits in each bedroom and the main living space. Melrose Hill is an exciting, emerging neighborhood, quickly becoming a destination in and of itself for food, art, and culture. Blocks away are iconic neighborhood favorites like Cafe Telegrama, Bar Etoile, tra, Little Fish, LA Grocery & Cafe, and FOLM Studio. With easy access to Larchmont, the Eastside, Hollywood, Koreatown, and Downtown L.A., this is a rare opportunity to own a character-rich home, updated to perfection, in one of the coolest neighborhoods of Central Los Angeles.
