2149 Valentine Street, Los Angeles, CA 90026

Perched above the street, in a peaceful pocket of Elysian Heights sits this incredibly charming 1930s Spanish gem. This delightful detached property is tucked away in a verdant courtyard setting and is comprised of two unique spaces - a 1 bedroom / bath home upstairs and a permitted rec room with additional bedroom space/office and bathroom downstairs. Step past the upstairs front porch into light-filled soulful spaces that have been recently refreshed but still feature amazing original details including vintage hardware, high coved ceilings, echoed archways, and gleaming hardwood floors throughout. The home's bright, spacious entryway offers views of the hills of Echo Park and opens to an elegant living room that looks out to lush privacy hedges. French doors lead you to the adjoining dining room which boasts large original windows that perfectly frame the most beautiful banana leaf palm. The adorable kitchen features stainless steel appliances, ample storage, leafy vistas, and an adjacent separate laundry room with access to the dreamy private backyard. A large bedroom and lovely bathroom complete the upstairs space. Descend one of the two exterior staircases to the beautifully landscaped outdoors, where you'll find a dining terrace with additional views of the hills, mature plantings, and a canopy of hedges. The separate lower level offers endless possibilities for hosting out of town friends and family, the ideal work from home setting, or the creative space of your dreams, entirely independent of your main living space above. Private detached one car garage. This incredibly special property feels like a little sanctuary, while perfectly located just moments away from some of Echo Park's best.
