Charming Picfair Village Home with ADU Potential
Tucked on a quiet street in the heart of Picfair Village, this well-maintained 2-bedroom, 1.75-bathroom home blends character, functionality, and future potential on a generous 5,749 sq ft lot.
Vintage charm shines throughout, with original built-ins and architectural details that add warmth and style. Each bedroom features french doors that open onto an expansive deck and a beautifully landscaped backyard featuring low-maintenance turf and mature citrus trees, including lemon, grapefruit, and Meyer lemon. The deck offers both stairs and a gently sloped ramp—ideal for ease of access when accommodating guests with limited mobility.
The oversized detached garage is currently being used as a gym. Its generous size offers strong ADU potential for future expansion or income generating opportunity or additional living space. A gated driveway provides secure parking for up to three vehicles, with an additional off-street space.
Ideally located near the 10 and 405 freeways, the home offers quick access to downtown, the Westside, and beyond. Residents enjoy proximity to local cafes, restaurants, parks, and cultural attractions including the LACMA, La Brea Tar Pits, The Grove, and Kenneth Hahn Park—all just minutes away.
This home delivers rare flexibility, original charm, and room to grow in one of L.A.’s most desirable and centrally located neighborhoods.
