Property Description

Set on a tree-lined street in Leimert Park, this classic Spanish-style home is a dream fixer with original architectural details ready to be brought back to life. Designed by Steinkamp and built in the 1940s, the home features hallmark elements like coved ceilings, arched doorways, and a formal dining roomall still intact and full of design potential. A traditional layout includes a living room with fireplace, a breakfast nook, and a detached garage. Some system updates have already been completed, including plumbing lines to the street, interior shower plumbing, and a water heater replaced during the COVID era. With its solid footprint and strong curb appeal, this property is ideal for developers, home designers, or flippers looking for a canvas with timeless character. Leimert Park is known for its rich history, vibrant culture, and classic architecture, making this an excellent opportunity to restore a home in one of LA's most beloved neighborhoods. Conveniently located near Crenshaw and Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd, the Metro line, and local dining spots like Harold & Belle's, Highly Likely, and Jon & Vinny's.
