Welcome home to this sweet cottage bungalow that sits on an iconic palm-lined street of Chesterfield Square. New laminate floors in the open living and dining rooms sparkle. The eat-in kitchen has undergone a face lift with new countertops and tile floor. Laundry area is inside the home. The two bedrooms have ample space, new carpet and good sized closets. The driveway is long enough to fit 6 cars! The garage has an extra room on the side which opens up all kinds of possibilities for the new owner of this property. It could be used as a workshop, person cave (who says the men always get the cave?) or a guest room with a little work. The back yard is very big, and has several mature trees growing. This home is great for a first-time purchase, or for an investor who wants to rent it out for income. There is access to multiple malls and shopping outlets, public transportation including new and upcoming Metro lines, freeways and the USC area. The Westside is accessible in minutes via Slauson. Come discover Chesterfield Square!
