About this home
Back on the market! Welcome to 1355 S. Downey Rd, a unique East Los Angeles opportunity featuring a beautifully designed ADU—perfect for extended family, guests, or creating steady rental income. This centrally located property sits just minutes from Downtown LA, shopping, transit, and the bustling industrial district, offering unmatched convenience. Whether you’re an investor or a homeowner looking for flexibility and value, this property delivers space, potential, and location all in one.
Eastside LA, located between the Los Angeles River and the San Gabriel Valley foothills, is a historic and industrial Los Angeles neighborhood with hillside views and mural-lined streets. The character concentrates along Cesar Chavez Avenue near Evergreen Cemetery, where panaderías, taquerías, record shops, and late-night coffee windows keep the sidewalks in motion. Craftsman bungalows and mid-century apartments mix with warehouse blocks and rail corridors, giving the streetscape a layered, working-city feel. Self Help Graphics & Art anchors local printmaking and exhibitions, while Mariachi Plaza sets a steady rhythm for public life. The Japanese American National Museum and the Arts District’s Hauser & Wirth add gallery energy and design-forward dining nearby. Parks and river paths shape a daily routine built around walks, bikes, and neighborhood errands.
