Description
This is a unique opportunity to own a piece of Los Angeles history. Fully restored, tastefully designed and updated, this Stick-Style Victorian is the only verified remaining home from the Bunker Hill area. Built in1883 by architect William R. Horton, this historical and architectural gem was once used as the original Good Samaritan Hospital, and as the City grew, it was moved twice to preserve it. Now, safely ensconced in the Angelino Heights HPOZ, the current owner/designer painstakingly restored the residence, marrying its invaluable historic features with quality materials and top-notch modern amenities. Giant wood windows, Douglas fir floors, ornate decorative fireplaces, and stained-glass windows happily co-exist with a fully modernized and comfortable home including chef's kitchen, dual zoned HVAC, and all new systems. There are exquisite details and surprises around every corner: from the original hinges and door hardware, plus original pocket doors, to dragon-headed window latches, lattice cutouts, and dark wooden details on the curved staircase. The main residence boasts 5 bedrooms (with primary bedrooms on both the 1st and 2nd floors) and 3 bathrooms, with an additional 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom unit located over the 3-car garage. Outdoor space is plentiful with a nice size yard plus large roof deck. Legally a duplex plus ADU, this property has endless possibilities: the main residence, currently being used as a single family, can easily be split into an up/down duplex, each with its own entrance. The ADU has been rented in the past for $3,500/mo.
