Elysian Heights takes its name from Virgil's Aeneid. In the Aeneid, the Elysian Fields is depicted as a paradise reserved for the virtuous and heroic souls. Perched at the top of a hill at the corner of Princeton and Cerro Gordo stands this captivating two-story Spanish Duplex. With one entrance on Cerro Gordo and one on Princeton, the 2139-square-foot duplex is ready for your heroic touches to create your own Paradise in peaceful Elysian Heights. The upper unit, 2243 Princeton Avenue, is a bright sanctuary featuring two bedrooms, one bath, a charming breakfast room with built-ins, a kitchen boasting a 6-burner chef's stove, a laundry room, and a bonus room with panoramic views that will leave you breathless. The lower unit, 1560 Cerro Gordo, features two bedrooms and one bath with entrances in front and an exit onto the shared patio that offers views for miles and an original brick fireplace perfect for your legendary BBQs. There is a shared attached two-car garage on Cerro Gordo. The basement houses the furnace and water heater and can be used as a laundry room. The property is equipped with a solar energy system and is convenient to Downtown L.A., trendy Silver Lake, and Echo Park. The duplex would be ideal for housing two generations of a family, as a live-in one/lease the other, or as separate income property units. Recent updates, including new floors and fresh paint, have been completed. Inspection reports are available for review. While several repairs have been made, buyers will likely wish to update the roof, electrical, furnace, and plumbing, have the foundation inspected, renovate the bathrooms and kitchens, and install a garage door. This is a probate listing and does not require court confirmation. Seller WILL NOT review offers from Buyers who have not toured the property. Seller, Broker, and Broker's agents do not represent or guarantee the accuracy of the square footage, bedroom/bathroom count, lot size or lot lines, permitted or unpermitted spaces, zoning, permits, etc. Buyer and Buyer's agents are advised to independently verify the accuracy of all info and to do their own due diligence.
