New Listing














West Park Craftsman Duplex


I'm about a week away from sticking this in the multiples. If anyone has the slightest interest, flag me down. As usual, I will deal for clients.



The property is a duplex, though potentially convertible to a single family. The two units are side-by-side, and entirely different. The smaller unit (around 900 square feet) is Shotgun style, square rooms, stacked one after another: living room, bedroom, bedroom/dining room, kitchen/utility. (A bathroom is sandwiched between the two bedrooms.) The larger unit (1200 plus square feet, 2 bedrooms, 1 bath) boasts the look and feel of a mid-sized bungalow, chocked full of Craftsman doo-das: board-and-batten wainscot, window seats, column topped room dividers, and more.



The property is located near the corner of Walton and 40th Place (1114 & 1116 W. 40th Place), roughly a block South of King and a block West of Vermont, alluringly close to Exposition Park (the best urban park in Los Angeles!) and USC. Manual Arts high school is close by, but doesn't have nearly as much presence as one would expect, except on the Vermont side.

The smaller unit is already vacant, and rented recently for $1100 a month. A wonderful early garage, in usable condition, also sits on the lot. The price is $585,000.00.

I have more photos which I'll feature soon.
