Property Description
This isn't your typical Boyle Heights home. Set in the heart of Boyle Heights, this light-filled 3-bedroom home blends vintage character with thoughtful updates and a warm, welcoming spirit. Behind a gated front yard framed by lush greenery, the home opens to a bright, open concept living space with soaring 9' ceilings and original charm intact. Through the wooden front door with amber stained glass, youre greeted by a spacious living room drenched in natural light from four windows, including a picture window overlooking a plant filled front porch. Adjacent to the living area, a sunroom with a large window offers flexible use as a den, office, or guest space, perfect for working from home or hosting friends. The freshly remodeled bathroom features a new shower with sparkling white tile and chrome accents, and new tile floors creating a spa-like retreat filled with soft, natural light. The kitchen has been updated with new recessed lighting and easy access to a generous laundry room that connects to the backyard. Each bedroom feels airy and bright, with the primary bedroom opening directly to the garden, a peaceful spot to enjoy morning coffee among the fig and bougainvillea. Outdoors, the large, level backyard is a private sanctuary framed by mature fruit trees, roses, and vibrant blooms. The detached garage, formerly an artists studio, offers endless possibilities as a creative workspace, home office, or guest retreat. Ideally located minutes from Downtown LA and the Arts District, this Boyle Heights gem offers the perfect balance of privacy, light, and urban convenience.
