This super charming and Bohemian influenced Spanish-style bungalow is perched atop a hillside at 1816 Lake Shore Avenue in Echo Park. If you’re hoping to hone your green thumb (I know I am!) the property is surrounded by lush landscaping and garden boxes (and a palm tree or two). This magical urban oasis is a peaceful and private little retreat yet just a short jaunt from Lassen’s, the Silver Lake Reservoir, Echo Park Lake, and Elysian Park.
Inside the main house there is plenty of bright light. First thing you’ll notice upon entry is probably the wood burning fireplace. Perfect for cozying up near during our winter months. But don’t ignore the other adorable details of the home: the hardwood floors, the tall windows, the built-in bookcase, and so much more.
The open layout floor plan also features a casual dining area perfect for dinner parties.
The stylish yet simple kitchen has butcher block counters, a vintage stove and range, stainless steel fridge, wall to wall windows, and a gorgeous sloping wood beamed ceiling.
The kitchen also has an eat-in area with views of the backyard, plus a mud-room style exit area.
Though the home has just one bathroom it’s delightful as all get out. A bit retro, a bit modern, altogether cool.
The master bathroom has outdoor access making for easy breezey indoor/outdoor living.
Plus a lovable little nook for lounging, relaxing, and reading.
And did I mention this pleasant surprise? A large walk-in closet with built-ins and a skylight.
Dining al fresco is also doable at 1816 Lake Shore. The covered wraparound deck is a dream, rain or shine.
The second guest bedroom could double as an excellent office.
Outside the terraced yard and patio areas feel like a private retreat from the city. The landscaping is A+.
And the detached artists studio is a divine addition for both work and play.
Whether you’re relaxing outdoors or entertaining family and friends, 1816 Lake Shore has so much to offer.
And so much to discover.
