Motivated Seller! Welcome home to this masterfully preserved piece of Los Angeles history with this 1909 Craftsman estate, originally restored by the acclaimed historical architect Martin Weil. This property offers a rare combination of early 20th-century artistry and high-end modern upgrades, functioning as a legal duplex with two distinct living spaces. The primary home features 5 spacious bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms across 2,604 sq ft of refined living space. The interior is a showcase of artisanal heritage, featuring rich, intricate Douglas Fir built-ins, wainscoting, and restored period light fixtures. A signature Batchelder fireplace serves as the centerpiece of the living room, complemented by beamed ceilings in the formal dining room. The thoughtfully updated kitchen boasts granite countertops, a prep sink, and a refurbished 6-burner O'Keefe & Merritt range. A comprehensive renovation in 2004 ensured the home's longevity, including seismic retrofitting, copper plumbing, updated electrical systems, dual-zone HVAC, and a newer roof.
