2923 Jeffries, Los Angeles, CA 90065

Tucked at the base of Mt. Washington on a quiet street in Cypress Park, 2923 Jeffries Ave is a well-cared-for Craftsman with 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms on a generous 7,086 sq ft lot. Step through the bougainvillea-draped archway to enter into a large, fully-enclosed front yard thoughtfully reimagined for LA's water-wise program, highlighted by California natives, wildflowers, young wisteria and roses. Ascend the steps to an expansive front porch with an oversized wooden door and plenty of room for sitting and being idle. Enter into the home where you're greeted by a well-laid-out, open space living and dining room with classic Craftsman built-ins, a fireplace and period lighting. Off the dining room is the first bedroom overlooking the front yard drenched in light from windows on all sides. Off the living room and down the hall are two generous-sized bedrooms, both offering an en-suite bathroom, plus an additional hallway guest bath. The kitchen features modern fixtures, quartz counters, an oversized stainless fridge and freezer, plenty of counter space, and room for a second eating area or your work-from-home space. Two sets of sliders open to the large, private yard with an expansive deck, numerous producing fruit trees including apple, peach and orange, and a structure that works as an entertaining space, workshop, additional parking, or space to build. This home has great bones, from the Craftsman architecture to the abundant storage (including a huge crawlspace) and natural light throughout, but there's also the benefit of up-to-date major systems: the foundation bolted and T-strapped to today's seismic standards, copper plumbing, modern ABS waste lines, and current electrical wiring. And with this special home comes a special neighborhood: an annual block party where families gather every summer, neighbors who look out for one another, a street that's part of a school safe zone, and a location in the heart of some of NELA's best dining - Hermon, Hippo, Dunsmoor, Michelin-starred Villa's Tacos, For the Win and Loquat Coffee are all nearby. You'll find local playgrounds and dog parks in the area, and the Self Realization Fellowship gardens right up the hill. Easy access to the 5, 110, and 2, Gold Line nearby, five minutes to Dodger Stadium, and a short drive to Highland Park and Pasadena. If you've been waiting for a move-in-ready Craftsman with a real yard in a neighborhood that has soul, this is the one.
