Tucked behind a private gate in the coveted HPOZ neighborhood of Wilshire Park, this beautifully updated home offers a rare combination of historic charm and updated modern living. The main residence features 2 bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom, plus a large upstairs den/loft that can easily function as a third bedroom, office, media room, or flex space. With 3.5 bathrooms in the main house, the layout is thoughtfully designed for both comfortable living and entertaining. The open-concept living and dining area showcases soaring ceilings, abundant natural light, a cozy fireplace, and elegant marble flooring. Recessed lighting throughout the home enhances the bright, polished atmosphere. The fully upgraded kitchen is a standout feature, offering newer cabinetry, quartz countertops, a stylish backsplash, and a coordinated suite of energy-efficient black stainless-steel appliances. The oversized primary suite serves as a private retreat, complete with a luxurious en-suite bath featuring a separate soaking tub, walk-in shower, and generous cabinet space. Adding even more value and flexibility is the detached converted garage approximately 252 sq ft, complete with its own refrigerator, washer/dryer and full bathroom. Perfect as a guest suite, home office, creative studio, or potential income-producing space, this bonus structure expands the home's functionality well beyond the main residence. Additional highlights include an EV charger, washer /dryer, and refrigerator, not to mention the mature and beautiful lemon tree and persimmon tree that yield abundantly throughout the seasons. The large backyard and driveway are hardscaped to create a perfect canvas for an outdoor entertainment area with enough room to fit at least 4 cars. Ideally located just minutes from Larchmont Village, Hancock Park, Koreatown, Miracle Mile, and major freeways including the 10 and 110, this gated Wilshire Park gem combines character, convenience, and versatile living in one exceptional property.
