This incredibly sweet 2 bedroom 1 bathroom cottage bungalow sits along a palm tree lined street in Chesterfield Square. A colorful and bright living room/dining room has the feel of an open concept with a pass through to the kitchen. There are two bedrooms with newly refinished hardwood floors and a charming vintage bathroom. New Roof (2024). New windows were installed throughout (2018). The deep 6030 sf lot is a fully fenced oasis with mature trees, drought tolerant landscaping, hardscaping, and plenty of room for even more possibilities-playtime for children and pets, outdoor dinners, or vegetable gardens. Garage was converted into a work space with a separate storage space for all your garden tools and needs. Commanding wood carport and long driveway that will accommodate many cars. Washer/Dryer, refrigerator, and stove included. Easy access to the Metro and freeways. Close to several vibrant communities and businesses such as beautiful Leimert Park Village, Harun Coffee, All Chill Ice Cream, Hilltop Coffee, John and Vinny's, Simply Wholesome, Jerusalem Chicken, as well as a short drive from the abundance of restaurants in West Adams such as Alta, Vicky's All Day, Mizlala, Highly Likely, South LA Cafe, and more. At the center of this beloved community is access to Kenneth Hahn State Recreational Area, Park to Playa Trail and Baldwin Hills Scenic Overlook. Great starter home with room for expansion.
