949 N Avenue 49

Los Angeles, CA 90042

Behind its white stucco facade and red clay tile roof, 949 North Avenue 49 reflects the enduring appeal of Spanish architecture. Full of character, the home consists of a series of arches, hand-troweled plaster walls, and original hardwood floors which define the interior, while a large, fully fenced front yard sets the home back from the street and creates privacy along Avenue 49. The living room is anchored by a striking brick fireplace with an arched niche and working hearth. A large picture window draws in natural light, and curved openings lead to the dining room, preserving the home's original flow. The dining space sits beneath an iron fixture and connects directly to built-in cabinetry that adds storage without sacrificing character. In the breakfast room, glass-front built-ins and open shelving nod to the home's era. In the kitchen, updated appliances and clean-lined countertops sit comfortably within the existing architecture. Two bedrooms sit off the main hall. The primary includes a recently added quarter bath, large walk-in closet which is unusual for homes of this era and opens directly to the backyard. The full bath maintains detailing consistent with the home's architecture. The backyard has been landscaped with decomposed granite paths, garden boxes, wooden decks, and mature plantings. The layout separates areas for dining, gardening, and outdoor seating. A covered patio with red tile detail and a grill anchors the outdoor setting. The detached garage, finished with smooth walls, recessed lighting, two windows that look out onto the yard and can function as a studio, gym, or workspace. Located in the hills mere blocks from York Blvd. and its many charming shops and cafes in Highland Park, this two-bedroom, 1 1/4 bath home spans 1,171 square feet and preserves its original architectural detailing, along with outdoor space that extends how the property lives day to day.
