1508 S VICTORIA AVE Los Angeles, CA 90019

Great opportunity to restore and upgrade one of the original grand Craftsman homes (built 1908) in the prime, semi-gated Victoria Park neighborhood! Impressive 3-story, multi-gable exterior and sprawling 10,000+ square foot lot combine to create a compelling curb appeal. Dramatic and spacious, this fine home retains important period character elements, including: beamed ceilings in the living room, unique "club" motif decorative staircase balusters, stone-like fireplace, original wood windows and trim, likely mahogany woodwork in entry and living rooms (currently painted). Practical user-friendly floorplan. Expansive front porch leads to a grand entry hall and impressive staircase. The large living room opens through pocket doors to a bay-windowed den. The dining room is also substantial. Upstairs are four original, spacious bedrooms plus two sun porches that have been enclosed and are currently used as additional living space. Huge third floor is an unfinished attic but has great potential. The rear and side yards are currently paved, yet provide significant space for future pool, ADU and/or other accessory buildings, and new landscaping. The residence will benefit from substantial work (restoration, upgrades and rear landscaping), but worth it bring your own taste to the project! This property has great potential to be a true showcase home with an estate-like feel, in an attractive, convenient and popular Mid-City/West Adams pocket neighborhood of grand homes and distinctive architecture.
