An earthy, vintage craftsman treehouse set amongst the urban jungle in coveted Elysian Heights. Equal parts soulful & serene, this c. 1917 dwelling is ripe for easygoing California living ... with gloriously original wood detailing, hillside views, and a backyard for an endless summer. Pass underneath a shady tongue-and-groove porch to your front living room and dining area set below a pitched wooden ceiling, with brick fireplace + parquet flooring. The cozy den is full of period detailing ... wainscotting, antique hardware, and original built-ins are casual wonders from another era. Just off this room is a warm chef's kitchen with updated appliances, washer/dryer, & counter seating. Step through french doors onto the incredible upper deck with views of Echo Park's hillsides and downtown LA beyond. Back inside, a chic guest bedroom is warmed by original plank flooring. Soak the day off in your stunning, understated bathroom with clawfoot tub + rainfall shower. Through an office/flex space with side balcony, you'll find a light-filled bedroom with wraparound walls of windows + wood ceilings, framing canyon views. A private lower yard with cowboy pool and sun-drenched, expansive deck is perfect for hillside soirees, morning yoga, or quiet reflection. Towering banana trees & mature bamboo create a jungle-like, almost treehouse-tropical sanctuary. An easy walk to Canyon Coffee, Cookbook, and Bacetti, you're at the heart of all that makes Echo Park irresistible. An exceptionally rare artist's abode, awaiting her next custodian.
