Turn key condition house + development potential = Living in a dream house while building a dream! One of the closest suburb from Downtown LA, the historic Garvanza / Highland Park area is young professional, trend setter's delight! Move in ready! Remodeled interior, wooden fence and long driveway with wooden car port. Yet it gets better.... owner/user development opportunity in your own backyard. Rare RD2 zoning, potentially 3 units allowed on this lot. An architectural plan was drawn in 2019, to propose 2 more units in the spacious back lot. Current house is 2 bed 2 bath, engineered wood floor throughout, granite countertop, stainless steel appliances, plenty of cabinet space. Newer dual pane windows great for energy efficiency. Wooden back patio extends outdoor living in the huge backyard with fruit trees. Many newly constructed properties added modern vibes to this street.

Easy commute, convenient access to freeways (110 Fwy, 5 Fwy, 210 and 134). Walking distance to park, elementary school and bus stop, Dash. Close to Arroyo Seco Golf Course and other entertainment in Pasadena such as restaurants, shops, art galleries. Also, close to Rose Bowl, Eagle Rock, Dodger Stadium, Occidental College, China Town, and East LA. Car port in front drive way and backyard.
