Tucked away in the heart of prime Silver Lake, this enchanting, 1933 storybook Spanish-style home is a rare blend of timeless character and laid-back California living. From the moment you step inside, you are greeted by original details that evoke warmth and charm... arched doorways, coved ceilings, vintage tile, and hardwood floors that tell the story of nearly a century of LA history. The home's two bedrooms are filled with natural light, while the single bath retains its authentic appeal with beautifully preserved period fixtures. The living room is anchored by a classic fireplace and bathed in sunlight from a large, iconic front window, indicative of Spanish style homes from the era. The living room flows seamlessly into a formal dining room, perfect for intimate dinners or lively gatherings. The kitchen retains its original charm while offering thoughtful updates for modern convenience. French doors open to a serene backyard oasis, where relaxation is impossible to avoid. Take a soak, under the stars in your built-in hot tub or unwind with a schvitz in your private stand-alone sauna. The whimsical outdoor space is designed for both solitude and entertaining, surrounded by mature landscaping that enhances the home's sense of privacy and serenity. Enjoy having some of Silver Lake's most beloved coffee shops, restaurants, and boutiques just down the street. Within minutes, you can be grabbing breakfast at LAMILL, oysters at L&E or browsing the eclectic shelves at The OK Store. Sunset Junction is just a few minutes away by car and the reservoir is a couple of blocks away. Take advantage of everything that makes Silver Lake one of L.A.'s most vibrant and sought after neighborhoods. If you are looking for a soulful and stylish retreat in one of L.A.'s most coveted enclaves, 2961 Effie is Silver Lake living at its finest.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
