411 Ulysses St, Los Angeles, CA 90065

411 Ulysses St. Quiet tree lined street in close proximity to North Figueroa. Renovated three bedroom, two and a half bath home with a private gated yard, a sauna, a hot tub and EV charging already installed. Location is the whole pitch here. This street sits in the middle of everything happening on the eastside, and you are not stuck picking one neighborhood. Highland Park is a few minutes up Figueroa. That is Highland Park Bowl, the whole North Fig and York Boulevard run of restaurants, bars, coffee and vintage shopping. Glassell Park is right next door, where Dunsmoor, its walk-in wine bar and Bub and Grandma's bakery all sit on the same corner. Eagle Rock puts Colorado Boulevard, Casa Bianca and Occidental within easy reach. Atwater Village and its Glendale Boulevard stretch of bakeries, wine bars and the Sunday farmers market is a quick drive. So is Silver Lake, for Sunset Junction, the Reservoir loop and the coffee. Head the other direction and Chinatown, the Arts District and Downtown are minutes away. Grand Central Market, Disney Hall, the Broad, all of it. Echo Park and the lake sit just past Downtown. Pasadena and Old Town are close going the other way. The practical version of that is you are equally close to a taco stand, a natural wine bar, a good grocery store and a Michelin listed restaurant, and none of it requires a real commitment to get to. If you commute or you are new to Los Angeles, this is one of the easiest spots in the city to be. The 110 Arroyo Seco is right there, the 5 is a couple of minutes out, and the 2 and the 134 get you to Glendale, Burbank and the valley without fighting the westside. The house sits behind a private gate. You come into an open living, dining and kitchen space with white oak floors and a connected layout that works whether you are cooking dinner for two or hosting twenty people. The front of the house faces west and the stairwell runs along the south side, so light comes in from two directions and the main floor stays bright well into the evening. The kitchen has carrara marble counters, floating shelves and stainless appliances. Clean and simple, and it holds up if you actually cook. Upstairs opens up along a design forward stairwell. At the top of the stairs there is an open landing that the current owners use as a sitting room, and because it sits right at the top of that south facing stairwell it holds light most of the day. It is the kind of space that becomes whatever you need. A real home office, a reading nook, a second lounge away from the main floor. If you work from home, this is the room that makes the house work. From there you get two bedrooms and a full bath, plus a primary suite with a spa style shower. Every closet upstairs is built out with solid storage, which is rare in a house this size and means you are not buying furniture to make up for it. There is a half bath downstairs for guests, which matters more than people think when you have people over. Downtown Los Angeles and the Mount Washington hillside sit in the view from the upper floor. The backyard is what sells this house. Fully enclosed and private, facing east so it gets clean morning light and stays comfortable in the afternoon once the sun moves off it. There is a sauna, a hot tub and a dedicated area set up for entertaining. Nothing else renting in this neighborhood has that combination. Built in 2005, and set up the way you actually want a house set up. Central heat and air on a Google smart thermostat, so you run it from your phone. Stacked washer and dryer in the unit. Two gated off-street parking spaces with EV charging already installed. No permission slips, no waiting on a landlord, just plug in and go. The house is offered unfurnished, but the owner is open to leaving some of the furniture besides the beds. If you are relocating or want to move in without buying everything at once, that is worth a conversation. Tenant is responsible for all utilities including water, gas, electricity and trash, plus renter's insurance. Pets will be considered on a case by case basis. No risk to apply. The $40 application fee will not be due until your application is reviewed and it is confirmed you meet the basic income requirement of at least three times the monthly rent. Good credit and positive landlord references are expected. Follow @heyheyLA_realestate and @haydenadler on Instagram for video tours and other real estate updates.
