Years ago back when I worked downtown I would purposefully drive through Carroll Avenue in Angelino Heights on my way to Sunset so I could admire the beautiful Victorian architecture that lines the street. It was out of my way, but the detour inspired me. Carroll Avenue’s homes were so stately, so beautiful, so unique that it became a sort of motivating daily ritual as I began my career in real estate.
So when I heard 1407 Carroll Avenue entered the market I simply had to see inside. I knew the exterior well, of course, because the home is a Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument, along with many of its neighbors.
The home is just as picturesque inside as it is outside. Upon entry, you’re greeted by a large foyer, not one but two separate living rooms, and, yes, a billiards room.
I mean, haven’t you always wanted your own billiards room?
The home’s finely honed details, like its soaring ceilings, long halls, ornate staircases, immaculate hardwood floors, large picture windows, were a real pleasure to see. They simply don’t make homes like this anymore.
You’ll love the spacious and updated cook’s kitchen. Lots of cabinet space, white tile backsplash, and vintage appliances.
There’s also a formal dining room.
Two bedrooms complete the first floor, and you will find four more on the second story. The master is large and elegant, and boasts beautiful downtown views.
But each of the home’s bedrooms are spacious and bright.
And you’ve just seen two bedrooms. You have four more! Use one into a guest quarters, home office, music or artists studio. The possibilities of this home are endless.
Next to the kitchen is an awesome and covered outdoor “service porch.” Perfect as a sort of indoor/outdoor bar and entertaining area.
Because if you live at 1407 Carroll Avenue you will definitely be entertaining. The huge backyard is calling for it. Plus, your family and friends will be dying to see inside this beautiful historic Victorian home.
