2 bedrooms PLUS a versatile bonus room with its own bathroom and exterior entry, currently used as a guest room and laundry area. A rare opportunity on Westmont Road, one of northwest Whittier’s most desirable streets, valued for its mature trees, wide lawns and generous setbacks. The 12,611 sq ft lot is the star, with a sparkling pool, a resort-style covered entertaining area with outdoor kitchen, and stunning sunset views from the landscaped backyard. Inside, the home retains its charm and character, with original hardwood floors, crown moldings, a separate dining room and a living room fireplace, alongside thoughtful updates including fully owned solar, EV charging, upgraded HVAC and electrical panels, custom shutters, recessed lighting and a water softener system. And there’s more! Remote-controlled gated entry provides rear-alley access to a 2-car garage and a covered carport for 3 additional vehicles. Attached to the garage, a permitted finished addition offers space for a home gym, office, studio or pool cabana. With all this space, there’s still room to grow and potential for future expansion, subject to approvals. Convenient to Palm Park’s aquatic center and tennis courts, the Whittier Greenway Trail, freeway access and the shops and dining of Uptown Whittier.
