This 1950s California compound gives you the main house (3 bed/2 bath) plus a converted garage guest house (1 bed/1 bath) that works perfectly as a studio, workspace, or spot for family. The main house has that classic mid-century vibe with restored wood floors, original windows, and a bay window that floods the living room with light. The renovated kitchen features marble countertops and a sunny breakfast banquette - basically begging for weekend pancake sessions. Outside, you've got a private backyard with a sparkling pool, mature landscaping, and plenty of space for BBQs or just floating around avoiding responsibilities. Located north of Colorado Blvd, you're walking distance to Eagle Rock's shops, cafes, and hiking trails, though you'll want a car for most daily errands.

Description
Tucked into a coveted pocket of Eagle Rock, this thoughtfully reimagined 1950s California compound blends timeless design with modern updates. The main house offers 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, while the converted garage provides a flexible 1 bed/1 bath guest house; ideal as a studio, workspace, or in-law suite. Natural light floods the expansive living room through a large bay window, with a stately decorative fireplace grounding the space. Restored wood floors and original windows preserve the home's mid-century character and craftsmanship. The formal dining room flows into a beautifully renovated kitchen, perfect for hosting holidays or everyday meals. Marble countertops with coved edges, custom cabinetry, and a sunny breakfast banquette create a warm, functional centerpiece for the home. The den and main bedroom wing feature a rich, dramatic palette, adding depth and sophistication. The primary suite includes a walk-in closet, jewel-toned shower, and direct access to the backyard. Two spacious guest bedrooms and a stylish shared bath complete the main residence. Outside, enjoy a private backyard retreat with mature landscaping, a sparkling pool, and plenty of space for dining, relaxing, and entertaining. Located north of Colorado Blvd near Dahlia Heights Elementary, you're just blocks from Eagle Rock's favorite shops, cafes, and hiking trails.
