Built in 1917

An earthy, vintage craftsman treehouse set amongst the urban jungle in coveted Elysian Heights. Equal parts soulful & serene, this c. 1917 dwelling is ripe for easygoing California living ... with gloriously original wood detailing, hillside views, and a backyard for an endless summer. Pass underneath a shady tongue-and-groove porch to your front living room and dining area set below a pitched wooden ceiling, with brick fireplace + parquet flooring. The cozy den is full of period detailing ... wainscotting, antique hardware, and original built-ins are casual wonders from another era. Just off this room is a warm chef's kitchen with updated appliances, washer/dryer, & counter seating. Step through french doors onto the incredible upper deck with views of Echo Park's hillsides and downtown LA beyond. Back inside, a chic guest bedroom is warmed by original plank flooring. Soak the day off in your stunning, understated bathroom with clawfoot tub + rainfall shower. Through an office/flex space with side balcony, you'll find a light-filled bedroom with wraparound walls of windows + wood ceilings, framing canyon views. A private lower yard with cowboy pool and sun-drenched, expansive deck is perfect for hillside soirees, morning yoga, or quiet reflection. Towering banana trees & mature
