Set behind native landscaping and a spacious front porch, this 1911 Craftsman exudes warmth, history, and charm from the very first moment. Inside, rich original woodwork, wainscoting, built-ins, stained glass, and windows with beautifully wavy glass catch the magical afternoon light, while thoughtful updates provide ease and comfort for modern living. A brick hearth anchors the living room, creating a cozy space that draws people in the kind of home where friends and family naturally gather for holidays and celebrations. The kitchen blends vintage character with modern convenience, featuring marble countertops, a Viking range, and ample space for cooking and entertaining. Three bedrooms and two baths offer flexibility for guests or work-from-home needs, while the primary bathroom includes a luxurious, oversized clawfoot tub. Outdoors, the property unfolds into a private sanctuary. An orchard row of mature fruit trees including pineapple guava, apple, persimmon, apricot, lemon, avocado, and some of the sweetest oranges surrounds terraced gardens with space for vegetables, shaded patios, and an expansive deck for entertaining under the trees. Solar panels add efficiency, and a two-car detached garage with side street access, along with a long driveway, offer both practicality and potential for future ADU use. The location balances quiet neighborhood charm with easy access to local amenities just one block from groceries, close to the Glassell Park pool/ recreation center, and Rio de Los Angeles State Park, and a short ride to the Frogtown LA River path. Local favorites like Dunsmoor, Lemon Poppy Kitchen, and The Grant are nearby, while Atwater Village, Highland Park, and Silver Lake are just minutes away. This rare Craftsman retreat brings history, community, and nature together in perfect harmony.
