At the intersection of Location and Opportunity is where you’ll find this dreamy duplex comprising 838-840 North Kilkea Drive. Ideally placed between Melrose Avenue and Santa Monica Boulevard on a quiet street, this refined urban haven awaits its new caretakers. 840 Kilkea offers one bedroom and one bathroom, while 838 Kilkea presents two bedrooms and one and a half bathrooms. Lovingly owned by the same family for over 75 years, both units underwent a massive renovation in 2020, including installation of tankless water heaters, low-E3 windows, and many other improvements (see supplement for details). Don't miss the peaceful backyard, a sanctuary of flowers and mature fruit trees overseen by a professional horticulturist. Your new oasis beckons!
