Not one, but two craftsman bungalows on a lot in a great location in Silver Lake. Whether you envision this property as an amazing single family home with space for overnight guests or a granny flat, in-law suite, or other ADU or as a live-in-one and rent-the-other income potential situation, you won’t want to miss this wonderful property in one of my favorite east side neighborhoods.
The second bungalow, as seen from the sky. 2419 Berkeley is located in that sweet spot that occasionally you’ll find people arguing about online: is it Silver Lake or Echo Park? I think it’s safe to say 2419 Berkeley is decidedly on the Silver Lake side of this debate.
The first thing you’ll notice about this property is that it has the front porch of your dreams.
I mean, take one look at this expansive front porch and you might just immediately fall in love before you even go inside.
Imagine the al fresco dinner parties or just having your morning coffee on this great deck. The home is raised high above the street so the entertaining on the front porch and not the back porch shouldn’t worry you: the front deck is incredibly private.
From what is essentially a wall of French doors you enter into an inviting and charming space. The living room has hardwood floors, gorgeous craftsman built-in bookshelves, and a fireplace.
A spacious dining room boasts beautiful wainscoting and more of those dreamy built-ins, plus a unique bar set-up.
Notice the home is simply bathed in natural light, thanks in no small part to the generous glass doors and windows. The kitchen has been nicely updated and has easy outdoor access.
The front house consists of two sizable bedrooms.
Each of the bedrooms have outdoor access.
And both have ample storage.
The front house contains two baths.
And if your front deck didn’t provide enough outdoor entertaining space, it wraps around to the back and has great views of the pool.
The front and rear houses are separated by the newer pool, a charming garden with fruit trees, and a built-in Barbecue.
The dreamy back house is perfect for overnight guests, in-laws, grandma and grandpa, a short term rental or longterm lease.
The back house has been remodeled in the period craftsman style. It consists of one bedroom, one bath, plus a den/office.
Oak floors throughout. The cute kitchen has a nice eat-in bar.
The back house has a storybook cottage look and feel to it.
Both homes can also be accessed through an alley on Waterloo Street so technically each unit has a separate entrance, which is great for creating division between the two homes.
Both houses can be delivered vacant at the close of escrow.
2419 Berkeley Avenue is a dreamy little slice of Los Angeles.
Close to all of the best restaurants, shops, and nightlife that both Silver Lake and Echo Park has to offer, and with treetop views that stretch all the way Downtown, this is one major opportunity to own an awesome craftsman bungalow with a second craftsman bungalow to boot.
