If you know me, you know I love a California bungalow. And the next best thing to moving into one is be able to stage one with The Eastside Staging Company. This refreshed 1923 two bedroom home is located in a fantastic location in Silver Lake. You’ll love the grassy front yard with its white picket fence and a stone walkway leading to the front porch. Plus, there’s plenty of room on the large lot to possibly increase the living area, add an ADU, or keep it sweet and simple just the way it is.
The front porch offers a nice spot to unwind at the end of the day and enjoy the sounds and sights of the neighborhood. I also love these rounded hedges and their cute sitting area.
Inside, you’ll find a nice open layout that maximizes the square footage of the bungalow.
The living and dining room boasts nicely polished hardwood floors, a beautiful wood front door, and several oversized windows that allow plenty of light into the space.
We staged the home with a rounded dining table for four. But I think you could easily add a rectangular table with room for 6+. Also notice the great light fixtures throughout the home.
The spacious kitchen has easy outdoor access to your great deck through a pair of French doors.
The updated kitchen has a great vintage stove and hood range. These old stoves are perfect for scratch pizza making as they get hot. The kitchen also boasts butcher block counter tops, subway tile backsplash, dedicated laundry space, and ample storage.
The first bedroom in the rear of the house has outdoor access to the deck.
While the second bedroom faces the street, but is given a great amount of privacy because of those aforementioned front yard hedges.
While there’s just the one full bath, it’s spacious and dreamy with updated tiles and a great clawfoot tub and shower.
The shaded deck becomes a natural extension of your indoor living spaces. I was surprised by large it felt. We were able to stage both an outdoor dining table and a sitting area. The deck also offers great hillside views of Silver Lake.
Walk downstairs from the deck and you’ll find a great backyard with multiple sitting and entertaining areas plus room to grow.
There’s an ivy-covered storage shed by the pergola. The deep lot definitely has potential to add an additional dwelling unit, or perhaps a plunge pool.
1350 Mccollum Street was the longtime home of architect Lorcan O’Herlihy, FAIA. O’Herlihy was searching for an interim place for his family to live during the construction of their Venice residence. He saw the potential in this house and the value in the neighborhood. Now, 20 years later, after a sensitive remodel and restoration, the home returns to the market.
