Set behind a double hedge on a quiet, cul-de-sac-like stretch of Genesee Ave, this classic California Cottage is a rare opportunity to reimagine a home in the heart of Miracle Mile. The exterior character is fully intact round porthole windows, painted brick, and a shake-profile roofline carry through both the front house and the guest house over the 2-car garage. Inside, the 2-bedroom, 2-bath front house offers open living and dining rooms anchored by a large fireplace, ready for a full renovation. The grounds are the property's quiet showstopper a large brick front patio, layered garden beds, a stacked-stone accent wall, and a concrete driveway create a private, established setting that's rare to find intact. Together, the two structures total 1,944 square feet on a 6,385-square-foot l ot, within the Miracle Mile Historic Preservation Overlay Zone. The location is hard to beat: Urban Light and LACMA's new Geffen Galleries are a block away, the Metro D Line at Wilshire/Fairfax is close by, and the Academy Museum, The Grove, and the Original Farmers Market are all just minutes from your door. Few streets in Los Angeles offer this kind of quiet paired with this much culture and proximity right outside.
