About This Home

Tucked behind a rooftop-only street view for total privacy, this 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom El Sereno home offers 2,098 sq ft of thoughtfully updated living space on an expansive 10,622 sq ft lot spanning two separate parcels (APN 5309-004-030, 4,956 sq ft, and APN 5309-004-031, 5,666 sq ft). Walk down a few private steps from the street to discover a courtyard made for entertaining, then step inside to find pride of ownership in every room. Upgrade throughout include new windows and sliding doors, updated plumbing, recessed lighting throughout, and refinished kitchen cabinetry, giving the home a move-in-ready feel while leaving room to make it your own. A long driveway with two dedicated parking spots adds everyday convenience. Outside, the sprawling lot is dotted with fruit trees and offers sweeping views of Los Angeles, plus serious potential to expand, build an ADU, or simply enjoy the extra space and greenery. With two separate parcels included in the sale, there's flexibility for future development or investment that's hard to find at this price point. Location is everything here: El Sereno sits at the crossroads of it all, just a few miles from South Pasadena, Alhambra, Highland Park, and Downtown LA. Costco is right down the street, Keck Hospital of USC is nearby, and commuting to the rest of the city couldn't be easier. Privacy, views, upgrades, and room to grow — this El Sereno gem checks every box.
