3875 Middlebury St, Los Angeles, CA 90004
What's special
In a city where the entry point to homeownership keeps climbing, this one is a genuine breath of fresh air. For $699,000, you get a fully remodeled 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom Spanish bungalow in the heart of Los Angeles with outdoor space, gated parking, and a long list of brand new everything. In LA, that's not just a deal. That's a unicorn. Framed by lush privacy hedges, the charming front seating area sets the tone the moment you arrive a quiet, tucked-away spot to sip your morning coffee or host friends without sacrificing your peace. Step inside and it's immediately clear that no corner was cut in this renovation. New windows, fresh walls, and sleek mini-split systems throughout give the home a crisp, move-in-ready feel that punches well above its square footage. The thoughtful layout makes every inch work for you. A bedroom greets you just off the entry perfect for guests or a home office followed by a comfortable living room sized right for a full sofa and a pair of chairs. In-unit washer/dryer hookups add everyday convenience, and the second bedroom, tucked privately toward the back of the home, offers a natural separation that feels intentional. The bathroom is a standout beautifully finished with a shower you'll actually look forward to. The kitchen is compact but complete: counter space, solid cabinetry, a lazy susan for all your pantry staples, and room for a small dining table. It works. Step out the back door and you'll find even more usable outdoor space ideal for morning stretches, container gardening, or simply unwinding after a long day. A dedicated storage unit keeps the holiday decor and camping gear neatly out of sight. The gated driveway fits two cars, there's a covered carport, and an EV outlet is already installed because the future is now. And the bones? Rock solid. Brand new roof, electrical panel, wiring, and plumbing. This home isn't just beautiful it's built right. Walk across the street to the park. Stroll a few blocks to Virgil and you're at Sqirl, Courage Bagels, and the rest of the neighborhood's beloved local spots. Silver Lake, Los Feliz, and East Hollywood are all minutes away. This is the starter home LA buyers have been waiting for. Don't wait on this one.
