Description

A rare 1912 Craftsman that honors Boyle Heights' architectural heritage while embracing modern living. Built during the neighborhood's formative years, this historically significant 1,387-square-foot residence is an exceptional example of Arts and Crafts architecture, recognized for its distinctive Arroyo stone detailing and quality craftsmanship. Set on an expansive 14,180-square-foot lot, it offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Boyle Heights history while enjoying generous indoor and outdoor living. A welcoming front porch, distinguished by its beautiful Arroyo stone detailing, introduces interiors filled with warmth and natural light. Original double-hung windows, wood shingle siding, built-in cabinetry, and period details celebrate the home's enduring craftsmanship, while newly installed red oak hardwood floors bring renewed elegance throughout. The spacious living room flows into a formal dining room highlighted by an original stained glass window. The bright kitchen overlooks the backyard through a picturesque sink window and features a timeless checkerboard floor that complements the home's Craftsman character. Two sun-filled bedrooms enjoy abundant natural light through large windows. A full bathroom with shared bedroom access and a convenient half bathroom provide a functional layout, while a detached garage offers valuable storage. The backyard offers endless possibilities for gardening, entertaining, or future expansion. Mature eucalyptus, orange, lemon, and pomegranate trees frame tranquil outdoor spaces with sunset views toward the Downtown Los Angeles skyline. A covered rear porch provides a peaceful place to relax, while the long driveway offers off-street parking for two vehicles. Thoughtful system upgrades include a newer roof, updated electrical panel, complete electrical rewiring, repaired main sewer line, reinforced foundation, and updated water heater. Ideally situated just minutes from the Arts District and Downtown Los Angeles. Eligible for historic designation and potential preservation grant programs, this is a rare opportunity to become the next steward of an architecturally significant residence.
