Description
This property is no longer available to rent or to buy. This description is from March 26, 2024
Back on market through no fault of the property. Rare it is these days that a property comes on the market in prime Echo Park for well under a million dollars, but here one is. The current owners have called this property home for 62 years, and now they are giving someone else the opportunity to do the same. Whether you are a family looking to start your home ownership experience, or an investor looking to bring this little gem into the 21st century, this home represents an amazing opportunity on several levels. First, our designer friends at "Resourceful Construction" have created a "proposed new floor plan" (click on the blue 'docs' link here on this listing) that gives guidance on how best to re-imagine the main house. Second, the 265 sq ft connected garage provides a very cool and very easy ADU opportunity for either an "in-law" suite or a rental unit for additional income. Additionally there is a 350 sq ft basement area that would be ideal for an artist or music studio, or storage. The main house is 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms (in addition to the third bathroom in the basement) and is 1000 sq ft. The property also has a driveway long enough to park 3 cars tandem. Location-wise it couldn't be better. You are a nice walk away from Sunset Blvd, as well as to 600 acre Elysian Park. And you are on a very tranquil, walkable street. You are also a short walk to all the great shops, bakeries and restaurants along Echo Park Avenue. Bottom line, this just may be the best real estate opportunity on the whole East Side. .

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy child is about to culminate from 5th grade this year and we are so saddened! This was an incredible experience for my child from TK to 5th grade. Each teacher has been caring and gone above and beyond, even in the difficult pandemic year. The curriculum has been engaging, thorough, and the teachers have had the added benefit of seeing their students as people and not as drones meant to memorize rote. The LA's best (afterschool program) staff has been amazing. The campus is beautiful; lots of bright colors and trees and the garden is delightful! My child has participated in a number of beautifully self-motivated and creative student-driven plays, concerts, art projects, ceramics, lego robotics, music programs, and all that an arts program of this size should have to offer. Mrs. Gallo (2nd Grade) is truly the best teacher I've ever come in contact with, and the leadership from Principal Garza is clear and communicative and emphatic. Due to the changing demographics of the neighborhood (*ahem*...gentrification...) I've seen it change from being pretty culturally diverse to having more white families, more affluence; on one hand it's been good because of the influx of parent donations that allows this school to flourish, but I worry about the cultural diversity becoming phased out as lower income families are priced out of the neighborhood. But overall, the staff at this school do genuinely seem to care about the student experience and that's truly hard to find at LAUSD schools now.Parent Review2y ago - Thomas Starr King Middle School
