Property Description
First time on the market in over 60 years, this is your rare opportunity to re-imagine this prime Silver Lake home that is steps from top rated Ivanhoe Elementary. The large tranquil yard has been fondly referred to as a "mini Descanso Gardens" with wide ranging flora from the majestic Sycamore tree to plumeria, wisteria, rosemary, germanium, bird of paradise, moonlight cactus, and the list goes on. Relax wandering the garden pathways, or tend your potted plants in the shaded pergola. There is plenty of parking in the gated driveway, in addition to the large one car garage. New roof as of 2024. As an added bonus, there is a spacious basement that has exterior and garage access. It currently has a darkroom and an unpermitted 1/2 bathroom. With a little creativity, this space could be turned into a writer's haven, artist studio, or home office. This fixer on a large corner lot is minutes from the Silverlake Reservoir, convenient to the best of the eastside, and ready for its next chapter with you.
