Agent Remarks: Opportunity awaits! Experience this super charming, 1922 Craftsman bungalow, nestled in the sought after Leimert Park neighborhood of LA. This home sits on a 50' x 125' corner lot, so you are able to take advantage of the larger lot, a more open and bright feel and being part of a neighborhood where the pride of ownership shows. As you approach the front entrance, you are treated to the large, covered porch that is perfect for sitting outside, your favorite drink in hand, and enjoying beauty of the neighborhood you call home. Entering the home, you'll notice a door like no other and can only be described as "Grand." The highly desired and functional floorplan brings you the perfect marriage of an entertainer's dream and a wonderful space to spend quiet nights at home. The charm of this home extends to the well-preserved historical elements, including built-in bookshelves in the living room that perfectly frame the warm, welcoming fireplace, as well as an absolutely gorgeous built-in buffet located in the dining area. This is a true throwback to a time when thoughtful details were built into the homes for their owners to use and enjoy. The large kitchen delivers you plenty of space to create your culinary masterpieces, or to design your modern showcase of a kitchen - the space is plenty big for your imagination! An added bonus is a dedicated, formal family room right off of the dining room, which allows for elaborate or more intimate gatherings without having to worry about running out of room.

From the kitchen, your access to the backyard brings you to the oversized, outdoor space - bring your imagination and create your own vision of paradise!
