Timeless Prairie Box Craftsman with Downtown Views 1916 Character Home | View Park Adjacent |Gracing a raised corner lot just moments from historic View Park, this 1916 Prairie Box Craftsman is a rare architectural jewel with rich heritage. With 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths across a gracious two story floor plan, this home offers elevated living with views of Downtown Los Angeles. The freshly painted exterior, stately original front door, and newly installed driveway gate create an inviting first impression. Inside, period details abound, handcrafted woodwork, rich wainscoting, and original built-ins offer a window into a bygone era, while curated modern touches such as designer lighting and updated systems provide comfort and style for today's lifestyle. Natural light flows through French doors and original windows, illuminating warm wood tones and creating a welcoming ambiance throughout. A formal dining room opens to a flexible den space ideal for a home office or creative retreat. Upstairs, four light-filled bedrooms reveal views of the skyline. Impeccably maintained and thoughtfully improved, this home features: Central HVAC, copper plumbing, updated electrical, tankless water heater, reinforced foundation (2019), a whimsical attic door, and a custom wine cellar for the discerning collector. Outside, three expansive porches invite morning coffee or evening gatherings. In the backyard, mature fruit trees and dedicated planters provide space to grow your own herbs, vegetables, and fruits. An outdoor movie screen and surround sound system create a one-of-a-kind backyard cinema experience, perfect for entertaining. Located within close distance to the Leimert Park light rail station, this home offers easy access to Metro and city life while preserving the serenity and character of a residential neighborhood. This property also holds the potential to qualify for the Mills Act, which may offer significant property tax savings in exchange for the preservation of historic features.
