This single-story, three-bedroom, two-bath residence is bathed in natural light and features thoughtful design details that enhance everyday living. A warm, neutral palette and hardwood floors extend throughout the home, creating a bright and cohesive interior. The spacious living room, highlighted by a classic brick fireplace, flows seamlessly into the defined dining area—perfect for both entertaining and relaxed evenings at home. The galley-style kitchen features crisp white cabinetry, updated appliances, and a front-facing breakfast nook framed by a large picture window. Each bedroom provides a peaceful retreat, and both bathrooms have been tastefully updated, including a walk-in shower in the primary suite and modern finishes throughout. A white picket fence and mature landscaping frame the front yard, which features synthetic turf for year-round greenery and low-maintenance curb appeal. In the back, a wide stamped concrete patio provides a clean, usable outdoor space perfect for lounging or entertaining. The home also includes a two-car garage and a full driveway, offering ample parking and everyday convenience. Additional highlights include recessed lighting, a Wi-Fi-enabled EV charger, Ecobee smart thermostat, ADT security system, dual-pane windows, and central HVAC.

The surrounding neighborhood offers easy access to nature, contributing to a peaceful and quiet setting. Proximity to Downtown Los Angeles ensures a convenient commute, allowing you to enjoy both urban and natural beauty in one location.
