Hilltop views, style, and quick access to Debs Park! Where Montecito Heights and Rose Hill meet, this charming two-bedroom, two-bath bungalow is a fresh take on a classic home. Elevated above the street, it's a private retreat tucked away from the city, but close to everything - the best of both worlds. A generous front porch patio overlooking the hillside leads into a modern, elongated living space anchored by a central kitchen. With bedrooms at each end, both featuring en suite bathrooms, the home presents a perfect balance of private quarters and inviting shared spaces. Off the sun-drenched den, find the open patio and backyard--the highlight of the home. This spacious outdoor area, ideal for al fresco dining and entertaining, flows seamlessly to newly added west-facing turf, a dreamy spot to enjoy sunset vistas. With the entrance to beloved Ernest E. Debs Park just down the street, nature lovers will love the hiking trails, Audubon Center and views of downtown Los Angeles. Foodies can dive in to Secret Pizza just half a mile away, and all the richness of Northeast LA surrounding -- from Salvadorean cafecito at Cafe Juayua, Italian subs at The Heights Deli (both less than 2 miles away!) and Victorian vibes at Heritage Square Museum just a quick jaunt over the hill. A great condominium alternative or co-living option, this well designed home is close to both USC Hospital and Cal State LA - what an opportunity!
