Location, charm, and potential - all wrapped up in this delightful Highland Park bungalow just a block from bustling York Boulevard. Whether you're grabbing a morning coffee at Modu Cafe, treasure hunting at Nicson Mercantile, taking a yoga class at Highland Park Yoga or winding down with a great meal at one of many delicious restaurants, you'll love living steps from everything that makes this neighborhood one of LA's most sought-after. Set behind a sweet bungalow facade, this 2-bedroom, 1-bath home features hardwood floors, recessed lighting, and an updated bathroom. Additional upgrades include newer 200amp electrical panel, new windows, and sewer updates. The dining area includes charming built-ins, and the layout flows easily while still offering defined spaces. There's also a bonus room that makes a great home office, creative space, or utility room. Outside, a sweet front porch invites morning coffee or evening chats with neighbors. The backyard offers room to garden, relax, or possibly expand. This home is ideal for someone looking to live in now and dream big later. At $699,000, it's a rare opportunity to own a single-family home in the heart of Highland Park at a price that leaves room to grow. Whether you're a first-time buyer, an investor, or someone looking to downsize in style, this one's worth a closer look.
Charming 2 Bedrooms frame bungalow. One bedroom and bonus room was added without permits. One full remodeled bathroom. New windows and new cooper plumbing. One detached garage.
