About This Property

You’re not just renting a home—you’re discovering one of Uptown Whittier’s hidden treasures. Beautifully restored and full of character, this charming 1901 cottage blends the warmth and craftsmanship of another era with today’s modern conveniences. Thoughtfully restored to honor its historic character, this storybook one-bedroom home is tucked along its own private walkway just steps from Uptown Whittier’s restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, parks, and community events. All utilities are included. The owner pays water, gas, electricity, and trash, offering exceptional value and predictable monthly living expenses. Private gated parking with your own automatic gate opener is included, along with a private sidewalk leading directly to your entrance. Though approximately 390 square feet, every inch has been carefully designed with quality rarely found at any price point. The kitchen features brand-new white shaker cabinetry, quartz countertops, a stainless-steel sink and faucet, a premium five-burner LG range with center griddle, a commercial-style stainless vent hood properly vented to the exterior, brand-new LG stainless-steel refrigerator. Plus an energy-efficient mini-split heating and A/C system. Brand-new dual-pane windows preserve the home’s authentic 1901 architectural style while framing beautiful views of the historic front porch, Whittier Historical Society grounds, Uptown Whittier, the surrounding hills, and evening city lights. Enjoy the shared covered patio—an incredibly cool, brand-new setup inspired by the latest designs at Lowe’s, complete with a stylish ceiling fan and lighting package mounted above. The inviting picnic area with table and seating creates the perfect space for relaxing or entertaining, and it truly makes a lasting impression. Historic cottages restored to this level rarely become available for lease. If you’ve been searching for something beyond ordinary—a home that feels more like a custom Manhattan Beach or Newport Beach cottage than a typical rental—this is your opportunity to become part of Uptown Whittier’s living history.
