Posted on August 15, 2020September 15, 2020

1825 W 42nd Place
Los Angeles, CA 90062

$749,000 | 2 Beds | 2 Baths |1,176 Sq. Ft. | $637 / Sq. Ft. | 5,749 Sq. Ft. Lot | Built in 1916

Taking the crown for this week’s dreamiest craftsman bungalow is this restored two bedroom home built over 100 years ago in Leimert Park.

It’s been painted a gorgeous deep shade of green. The river rock porch is original. You’ll love spending evenings lounging here enjoying views of the neighborhood.

Inside you’ll find a an authentic and soulful home with many original attributes including wood beams, built-ins, and oak floors.

One of my favorite things about the house is this beautiful brick fireplace. I’m also quite partial to the stained glass windows.

The large living and dining room also has a great built-in bar with extra storage, as all craftsmans should.

The first bedroom at the front of the house has two walls of windows that provide plenty of light.

The first bath has a barn sink and a clawfoot tub.

The second bedroom would most likely be your master as it has an en suite bath and plenty of storage and closet space.

The en suite bath has been wonderfully remodeled.

The dreamy kitchen has period cabinetry painted to reflect the deep green of the exterior  of the house. There’s also a hood range, marble countertops, and handcrafted tile.

Seriously, you’ll love it. It’s been perfectly designed.

The laundry room is bright and airy with stackable washer/dryer, storage and counter space.

The lush and private outdoor spaces for work and play. The garden boxes provide a great opportunity to hone your green thumb. And, best of all, the veggie, fruit, flower, citrus gardens are all already set up with irrigation.

There’s a gas fire pit plus a garage turned office, studio or future ADU (plans included).

Also included? This vibey vintage trailer. Yes, for real.

The vintage trailer is seriously cute. Overnight campouts would be romantic, especially right now when what so many of us needs is a vacation. The trailer would offer a nice little chance for a vacation at home! The ultimate stay-at-home retreat.

The property sits on a tree-lined neighborhood street in the heart of LA, nestled amongst the action in bustling Leimert Park, West Adams, Culver, and DTLA, plus just a short trip to the beach via the metro line.

The home also upgraded electrical, plumbing, HVAC, tankless H2O heater, insulated attic, and earthquake bolting. It’s a spectacular craftsman bungalow with major curb appeal.
