Description
Welcome to 946 Larker Avenue, nestled in the coveted Arroyo View Estates of Highland Park, a special enclave of mid-century architectural homes lining gently curved, wide avenues in the hills. Perfect for anyone dreaming about the comforts of suburbia (parking! garage! storage! sidewalks!) BUT not wanting to live there... and preferring the activity of city life. This is a rare pocket in LA where you can get the best of both worlds: head to your favorite cafes, shops and anything else you'd want minutes away down the hill and then when you crave peace and quiet again, head home to relax. This is a spacious 1960s 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom single-story ranch, well-known for their effortlessly cool, timeless design and ideal floor plans. They were built for how people want to live with a breezy, wide open flow, each room spilling to the next. The huge living room draws you in with its magnificent Palos Verde stone fireplace and the quirky 1960s "hibachi" oven in the dining area will catch your eye (picture throwing a steak and veggies on the grill... inside!). Direct-entry garage into the kitchen where you'll see the beautiful stainless-steel Samsung French Door refrigerator and Bosch dishwasher. Original vintage wood cabinets and mini-Sputnik light fixtures add character, while walnut-stained wood floors in the secondary bedrooms and refinished solid oak flooring throughout enhance the warmth. Eco-friendly features include new windows and some new doors throughout, new(er) leased solar panels and a whole-house Kinetico reverse osmosis system for superior water quality. Step outside to the private front deck and back patio, both surrounded by professionally designed, drought-resistant landscaping, with highlights including the beautiful bottle-brush hedge and a new Coast Oak. Fenced and completely private, the backyard is ideal for BBQs or quiet moments. Nearby enjoy the Rose Bowl and Dodger Stadium, explore vibrant Highland Park, hike the wild trails of the Lower Arroyo Seco, ride at San Pascual Stables. You can take off to anywhere from here. But you might just want to stay instead and enjoy this quiet sanctuary.
