Sometimes a restoration of a home just gets everything so right. That’s the case with this Spanish-style casita built in 1934. It’s a few blocks up from York Boulevard. And, speaking of York, did you know there’s not one but two new coffee shops on the happening block? 1414 N Ave 55 is also just up the street from the upcoming Billie Bird Market, which is sure to become one of the hippest spots in town. If location and the restoration aren’t enough to lure you in, just take a look at that amazing arched window. This home is a true beauty
The front yard is landscaped with drought tolerant landscaping. There’s plenty of nice succulents and I think I spotted an aloe plant or two on my visit.
Inside, the signature HabHouse design really captures a poetic mix of all that’s charmingly vintage from the era it was built with today’s modern bells and whistles. The living room is enhanced by this stunning wooden casement ceiling, gorgeous built-ins, and that romantic viewing window.
And just imagine spending an evening in front of this lovely fireplace with friends and loved ones telling stories and having a glass of wine or two.
Seriously, you’ll love these built-ins.
The open kitchen with a nice eat-in dining room also has outdoor access perfect for summer dinners al fresco.
And not just one or two, or three, but four bedrooms in this excellently laid out home. The elongated use of space and floor plan enhances provides natural light in every space of the home. Really, for fans of natural light, and who isn’t, this home is it!
The nicely remodeled bathrooms are chic without being too over the top. Classic taste never goes out of style.
Whether you use them as a bedroom or an office, home gym, artist’s studio, or whatever, it’s always good to know you have the rooms there.
The imaginative master suite has an en suite bath and a door to the backyard.
And the backyard is just so charming.
Whether you’re entertaining guests or just throwing a ball around with your dog, the backyard is private and simple. And at sunset 1414 N Ave 55 really comes alive.
