Updated Craftsman in the Heart of Echo Park

This Echo Park renovated and nearly detached home with only one shared wall is surrounded by gated private front, side and back yards, and is the perfect retreat. Past the gate and winding path through the front yard, you will find a bright, open, spacious home beckoning you to relax on the swinging bench on the covered front porch behind a tall privacy hedge, or stretch out in the bountiful outdoor space, where you can linger, cook, gather and enjoy our classic LA weather. The open floor plan features a nook off the living room (perfect for a home office), a dining area, and an expansive chef's kitchen with wood-paneled ceiling and breakfast island with easy access to the backyard - give this home a wonderful indoor/outdoor flow. Step outside, grill up some impossible burgers and get ready to entertain this summer. Lots of outdoor space with room to get creative, add a veggie garden, fire-pit and enjoy Echo Park hillside living. Central AC/Heat, washer/dryer, high-end new GE appliances including fridge, stove and microwave, and one parking spot (pre-wired with 220v for fast EV charger) included. Intimate 3-home community with low HOA dues.
