About this home

Gorgeous classic Spanish two-story side-by-side duplex with yards and garages!! Sits perched above a serene, tree-lined street in Hancock Park; (first time on market in over 40 years), well preserved and maintained, and delivered with one vacant unit. Amazing original features, including a spacious open concept living and dining area, exposed beams, original hardwood floors, archways, built-ins, an elegant gas fireplace, and high ceilings. Each unit has 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths; provides great volume and natural light, each unit features a breakfast room and laundry/utility room off the kitchen. Two garages in the back (which could be developed into ADU's, and there would still be room for parking). Lovely tenants in unit 457 (1,948 sq feet) and unit 459 (2,050 sq ft) will be delivered vacant and has a newer central HVAC system. This rare gem offers an exceptional opportunity for both investors and owner-occupants, with the owner's unit vacant and ready for move-in at closing. Expansive patio oasis perfect for entertaining or relaxing in the back, and two large patio balconies, one in the front upstairs and one in the back upstairs + a Juliette balcony. Both units are outfitted with in-unit laundry, updated copper plumbing, and newer electrical panels. This duplex is a truly extraordinary find with an Incredible Walk Score, centrally located in between Downtown LA & Beverly Hills, and close to all the shops and restaurants of La Brea Ave, Larchmont Blvd, The Grove, LACMA, Pan Pacific Park, Melrose Shopping District, places of worship, and much more. Nearby hot spots include Republique, All-Season Brewing and nearby grocery stores include Trader Joe's and Lessens.
