    Nestled in the heart of Highland Park--with a WalkScore of 90 and just one block from countless restaurants, cafes and shops along vibrant York Blvd, is this alluring 1922 California Bungalow. Shaded by a magnificent Camphor tree, it effortlessly blends vintage details with striking modern updates. Sitting behind a gated, oversized lot with California natives and fruit trees, this beauty is a peaceful oasis in the City. Featuring an airy floor plan overflowing with natural light, it has been extensively updated throughout. The living room--adorned with a vintage fireplace, and roomy dining area, offer garden views and direct access to the gorgeous open kitchen. The designer-redone space offers abundant custom cabinetry, an island, quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances--including a gas range and dishwasher. Through the hall are two bedrooms with generous closets and a fully renovated guest bath with a tub. Tucked away in the back is the exquisite primary bedroom and bath. A true retreat, sunlight pours into the room through a glass slider that opens to the shaded side yard. The primary bath has dual sinks, custom cabinetry, lovely tile work and thoughtfully curated finishes. Beyond the French door is the summer-ready backyard. Featuring a massive covered gazebo, it's the perfect place to entertain, lounge or enjoy al fresco meals for you and 50 of your closest friends. The landscaped yard provides an ideal setting for garden lovers to dig in and unwind. Additional updates include a new central AC, a 200-amp electric panel and freshly painted interior and exterior. Located steps from York, it's mere moments to beloved local favorites Nativo, Joy, El Huarache, The Hermosillo, Donut Friend, Cafe de Leche and more--offering unparalleled access to the best of Highland Park.
