Delivered vacant at the close of escrow, this rare Echo Park property offers pride of ownership and solid income potential in historic Angelino Heights. The two separate homes on one lot are a great opportunity for an owner-user, or asset-collector in a neighborhood that is red-hot. Beautifully restored, the standalone California Bungalow and cottage each have two bedrooms, one bathroom and stylish interiors resonating with LA's history. Period elements include decorative moldings, built-ins, multi-pane windows and hardwood flooring. Each unit enjoys private outdoor space; the bungalow has a serene patio, yard and off-street driveway parking. The cottage offers a front porch and spacious back patio, lush with vegetation. From this choice location there is seamless access to Echo Park Lake, Elysian Park hiking trails, Lassens and a Friday Farmer's Market. Nearby hot-spots include Ostrich Farm, Tsubaki, Woodcat Coffee and more. Dodger Stadium and Downtown LA are within easy reach.
