Built in 1919

On the edge of Leimert Park, in a pocket called Chesterfield Square, lies a desirable pocket of rich architectural homes and community pride. This darling turn key 1919 bungalow has had an extensive remodel in 2015 and further design improvements by its current owners, blending modern flavors with bespoke antique pieces. Behind a lush grouping of iceberg roses sits an inviting front porch that greets you with a charming cottage-style front door with playful pale yellow roundels. The entry is flanked by two, one-of-a-kind antique brass sconces. New solid white oak flooring has been recently installed throughout the home. A sunlit south facing living room comes with a cozy wood burning fireplace. The open kitchen is color drenched with deep burgundy cabinets accented by brass hardware and a new robin's egg blue Marmoleum flooring. A thoughtfully curated collection of antique and art deco light fixtures adorn the space. With 1424 sf, the home is comprised of 3 generously sized bedrooms with ample closet space. A large bathroom off the hall has a stately checkered floor paired with a commanding Eastlake style mirror and School House Electric light. The primary suite can accommodate a king sized bed and has a walk-in closet. Here you can wake up to a vibrant bougainvillea outside your bedroom which leads you to a 5501 sf lot layered with California natives, hedges, and various fruit trees including avocado, fig, and a citrus tree that grows 6 varieties of citrus. The large 2 car garage offers many possibilities for personal use. Accessible to an abundance of surrounding hot spots in Leimert Park, Jefferson Park, View Park and beyond . . . South LA Cafe, Highly Likely, Harun Coffee, All Chill Ice Cream, Jon & Vinny's, Sunday Gravy, Cafe 5, and countless new restaurants in West Adams. The property sits equidistant to the E and K metro lines.
