2470 ECHO PARK Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90026

Property Description

This 1914 Echo Park Craftsman is perched at the edge of Elysian Heights with sweeping vistas of the San Gabriel Mts. Enter through one of 3 gates to discover this perfectly preserved bungalow with wood shingle siding, nestled under the canopy of a native oak. You will find gorgeous, original woodwork everywhere - the living room, dining room, bedrooms and kitchen are all wrapped in the elegant carpentry of the early 1900's. A stately brick fireplace, sleeping porch, numerous built-ins and hidden staircase add to the immediate charm. The main level bath with claw-foot tub and light filled kitchen, have both been subtly updated to retain their original elements. A second level bedroom, bath, sitting room, workshop/study and utility room round out the interior details. The rear deck leads to a level patio and terraced garden with lower lawn. The front deck wraps around a large oak tree that connects the home to a 1-car garage. A refuge in the midst of happening Echo Park.
