Nestled in the heart of historic Leimert Park where tree-lined streets and iconic Spanish architecture echo the elegance of Los Angeles’ golden era this reimagined 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom residence artfully bridges the charm of the past with the sophistication of modern living. Set on a spacious 6,000 square foot lot, the home embodies a rare balance of thoughtful restoration and elevated reinvention. Original hardwood floors have been carefully preserved and refinished, anchoring the home’s warm and inviting character. Unlike many remodels, this residence is a celebration of craftsmanship, where every detail from hand-selected finishes to custom millwork reflects care and intention. New Milgard windows flood the space with natural light, while upgraded doors inside and out create a seamless, refreshed ambiance throughout. Expansive archways open the flow between living, dining, and kitchen spaces, enhancing both functionality and connection. The chef’s kitchen is a true centerpiece, featuring custom wood cabinetry by NU Design, adorned with burnished antique Rejuvenation hardware. Striking Arabescato Corchia marble countertops provide a timeless touch, paired with high-end appliances including a 36-inch Fisher & Paykel refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher, and 30-inch Thor range. A Kingston Brass antique brass faucet completes the space with a refined flair. Each bathroom has been re-envisioned with an eye for design and comfort. The primary suite boasts a newly configured bath with Carrara marble countertops and antique brass finishes. A completely new hallway bath and a redesigned powder room round out the offering, all with cohesive, elevated fixtures in matte black and antique brass tones by Kingston Brass. Significant infrastructure upgrades ensure lasting value and efficiency. These include a new HVAC system and thermostat, high-efficiency tankless water heater, updated 200-amp electrical panel with dimmable LED lighting, and upgraded plumbing. Safety is also a priority, with wired smoke and carbon monoxide detectors throughout. Outside, the beautifully landscaped grounds offer multiple areas to relax and entertain. The front yard features fresh sod, while decomposed granite walkways wind through lush new plantings in the side and back yards. A new wood fence enhances privacy, while a custom-built railing and awning provide easy access to a storage basement. The garage has been updated with a new door, and the rear faade’s stucco has been refreshed for a clean, polished finish. All updates were completed with architectural plans, structural engineering, and full permitting. Security and convenience include newly installed wooden gates at both the driveway and side yard, and a motion-activated floodlight camera system for peace of mind. Blending timeless character with state-of-the-art upgrades, this home offers a rare opportunity to enjoy contemporary living in one of Los Angeles’ most culturally rich and connected neighborhoods. Just minutes from West Adams, USC Village, the Expo and Crenshaw Metro lines, and with easy access to LAX, Downtown LA, and Culver City. Enjoy vibrant local spots like The District, Highly Likely, Harold & Belle’s, and Jon & Vinny’s all within reach.
