Property Description
Located on desirable Rose Drive, north of Beverly Boulevard in one of Whittier's most sought-after neighborhoods, this beautifully maintained property offers a 3-bedroom, 2-bath main residence plus a fully permitted ADU, all set on a generous lot with a resort-style backyard. Just minutes from Uptown Whittier, convenient freeway access, and a short drive to Downtown LA, the location perfectly balances neighborhood charm with everyday accessibility. Step inside the main home and you're welcomed by a warm and inviting living room anchored by a fireplace, creating a comfortable space to gather and unwind. The layout flows naturally into the dining area and kitchen, which offers ample cabinetry, generous counter space, and a functional design ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The home features well-proportioned bedrooms with comfortable layouts, including a spacious primary suite and two additional bedrooms. The overall floor plan feels open yet defined, providing both flow and privacy where you want it. A den just off the kitchen serves as a versatile second living area perfect for a TV room, playroom, or home office-while a large, dedicated laundry room adds everyday practicality and valuable extra storage. Out back, the property truly shines. The backyard is designed for entertaining with a newer pool and jacuzzi, expansive patio space, and plenty of room to host gatherings year-round. Whether enjoying sunny afternoons by the pool or relaxed evenings dining outdoors, this space offers a true indoor-outdoor lifestyle. The fully permitted studio ADU is beautifully finished and generously sized, making it ideal for extended family, rental income, guest quarters, or a private workspace. A substantial covered parking structure doubles as an additional patio area, enhancing both functionality and flexibility. This is a rare opportunity to own a versatile property with a pool and permitted ADU in one of Whittier's premier neighborhoods.
