Property Description

Charming five-bungalow court in Highland Park.The bungalow court was a popular housing form in the first three decades of the 20th Century. Today, surviving examples are prized. This 1923 court is ideally situated in trendy Highland Park, moments from South Pasadena and Downtown LA. Set behind a vintage river rock wall and entered through a decorative wrought iron pergola, its five homes line up facing a leafy court. Each 520-square-foot bungalow has a living room, kitchen, one bedroom and one bath. All are separately metered for gas and electricity. South Pasadena views can be seen from the back end of the 10,000 square foot property. The homes are just off York Boulevard, a few blocks from a shopping area neighborhood guide Thrillist calls 'walkable urban gold.' It's a wonderland of restaurants, pubs, record stores, nurseries and more, including the historic Soda Pop Stop, a legend since the '50s. The address is also moments from noted South Pasadena's shopping and dining, Nature Park, a South Pasadena Dog Park, and the city's crown jewel, the 74-acre Arroyo Seco Recreation Area. A nature walk and bicycle path lead through the arroyo's rich ecosystem. Occidental College is a ten-minute drive away on surface streets, and Downtown LA is a 15-minute commute via the nearby 110 Freeway. A four-minute drive leads to the Highland Park Metro station. This is a rare opportunity to own and enhance a true residential treasure.
