Description

MILLS ACT HOME w/ property tax savings! This incredible Craftsman Bungalow in the highly sought-after Historic Landmark district of Bungalow Heaven has been thoroughly updated with no detail overlooked. For a decade the owners have meticulously restored this charming home. In addition to endless character in every part of the house, there is a primary bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, 2 additional bedrooms and an updated guest bathroom. The kitchen has been remodeled while maintaining the original character of a 1913 home with marble countertops, new shaker style cabinets, and a copper farmhouse sink. The formal dining room has picture rails, wainscotting & original built-in buffet with glass doors. The living room has picture moldings, a fireplace, and large window looking out to the other historic homes in the neighborhood. There is also a covered wrap-around front porch, pocket doors, new light fixtures, central heat and air (with newer ducting and furnace), copper plumbing, electrical re-wired, wood copper screens, sprinkler system (front and back), newer exterior painting, 9' ceilings, separate laundry area, a deep backyard with 1-car garage, and seismic bolting. The current owner, an avid gardener, has planted lovely David Austin English roses, multiple fruit trees (plum, lemon, apple, peach, orange, clementine & grapefruit) and camelias along with an herb garden. Convenient to McDonald park, shops, restaurants (such as Millie's Diner, Bacchus Kitchen, and Lavender & Honey coffee shop), hiking trails, Caltech, Huntington Library Gardens, and easy freeway access: a perfect place to call home.
