A quintessential 1936 Traditional in the heart of Silverlake. This authentic gem has all the character and privacy you're seeking, along with the outdoor space to entertain family and friends. The main living area features a large, private front courtyard surrounded by zen gardens and fountains leading to an open floor plan that highlights classic character. Aesthetics include Peg & Groove hardwood floors, French windows and doors, a wood-burning fireplace, an original 1936 tiled bathroom, beamed ceilings in the living room, and a beautiful reading lanai/sleeping porch, encircled by large-scaled original "double-hung" windows. A galley kitchen spills onto a covered deck perfect for an al fresco breakfast, and a stairway leading down to the lush backyard and additional studio or primary bedroom and bath. Previous owners used this space as a large studio space, but it can be easily double as a large primary bedroom or separate living space. The backyard features beautiful, mature trees and gardens with abundant spots to read or hang out. There is an additional small detached structure in the backyard, ideally for a writer, avid gardener, or children's play house. Close proximity to everything Silverlake. Enjoy eateries, boutiques, shops, and nightlife. Located in the Ivanhoe Elementary School District. Call us for an appointment.
