Magical: That is the only way to describe this Echo Park gem. Close the new, redwood-clad automatic gate behind you and feel the outside world melt away as you step into this beautifully renovated private retreat surrounded by mature trees and lush landscaping. Every day feels like the weekend at this charming 1905 Craftsman bungalow, which has been tastefully reimagined while maintaining its original character--raised porch, wood floors, original built-in millwork and moldings, and coved ceilings, to name a few--but with updated systems for modern living, including central AC, copper plumbing, and a newer roof, as well as updated, light-filled bathrooms, several home office options, and a renovated entertainer's kitchen with new stainless steel appliances and abundant storage. Downstairs offers a large bonus space and additional bathroom, perfect as a home office or guest/third bedroom. Each room looks out onto lush greenery and the beautifully landscaped yard, where the outdoor entertaining possibilities are endless. Have friends over and sit on the large, newly-refinished deck, surrounded by trees and open sky. Cook outside on the built-in BBQ with ingredients from the property's fruit trees, then dine al fresco under the new, vine-wrapped pergola for the quintessential Southern California outdoor gathering. After dinner, have a glass of wine by the fire pit, talking the night away under the stars. Just blocks away from Echo Park Lake, the Farmers' Market, and all of the neighborhood's restaurants, shops, and entertainment. This urban retreat is in the heart of it all, yet offers privacy and peace and quiet. You will love the easy living of your Echo Park oasis!
