About This Home

Perched in the coveted hills of Mount Washington, this enchanting Spanish casita offers a rare combination of privacy, character, and exceptional outdoor living. Crowned by an expansive private rooftop deck with sweeping hillside views, the home is perfectly designed for everything from intimate morning coffee to unforgettable sunset dinners under the stars. Inside, natural light pours through bright, airy spaces, highlighting crisp white walls, warm white oak flooring, and thoughtfully curated finishes throughout. The beautifully remodeled kitchen features stainless steel appliances, including a refrigerator, dishwasher, and range, while the renovated bathroom blends timeless style with modern comfort. Just beyond the kitchen, a private fenced backyard creates your own peaceful retreat, seamlessly connecting to a lush, park-like community green space surrounded by mature trees. Additional highlights include a detached one-car garage, low HOA dues, and the charm of detached bungalow living within the desirable Isabel Meadows community. Includes tankless water-heater, wifi controlled mini splits, and app operated bedroom fan. A new 5 burner range was installed in November. Ideally located just minutes from the vibrant heart of Highland Park, you'll enjoy effortless access to acclaimed restaurants, boutique shopping, neighborhood cafes, and the creative energy that has made the area one of Los Angeles' most sought-after neighborhoods. Offering the perfect balance of tranquility and urban convenience, this Mount Washington gem is a truly special place to call home.
