Overview

This character-rich 1920s duplex offers two spacious units, each with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, along with preserved period details. Both units include hardwood floors, barrel ceilings, decorative fireplaces, formal living rooms, dining rooms, and abundant built-in storage and closets. The upper unit also features an additional bonus room that can be used as an office space. Both units provide walk-in closets with vanities, bathrooms with separate tub and shower, spacious eat-in kitchens with extensive cabinetry, dedicated laundry rooms, and oversized bedrooms.

The property is located on a tree-lined street and is described as being near houses of worship, Larchmont Village, Museum Row, The Grove, Pan Pacific Park, and restaurants and shops along La Brea.

For buyers, this setup supports an owner-user approach with the upper unit delivered vacant. The lower unit is occupied with a month-to-month agreement, providing practical rental continuity while allowing the owner to occupy or lease the vacant upper unit based on preference. The strong unit layouts and in-unit laundry support tenant convenience in either use scenario.
