Overview

Located in the heart of Mar Vista Heights, this bird-house ranch thoughtfully blends original mid-century architecture with modern updates. Marked by its signature dovecote roofline and a covered front porch, the home opens to warm hardwood floors, original moldings, and a cozy living room fireplace. Large floor-to-ceiling windows fill the living and dining spaces with a soft sunset light, while the reimagined kitchen and butler's pantry feature custom cabinetry and quartz countertops to inspire your inner chef to create and host unforgettable gatherings. Off the main living area, the den opens directly to a rear Mangaris wood deck overlooking a terraced yard planted with mature olive and fruit trees, a private 15-foot swim spa, all framed by the rolling backdrop of Friendly Hills. The layout offers four bedrooms, including a quiet primary suite and a bright corner room suited for a home office. Modern comfort has been thoughtfully woven into this vintage dream, from the brand-new HVAC system to smart Wi-Fi irrigation and romantic landscape lighting that makes the entire property glow after dark. The location delivers simple, everyday convenience, offering quick access to local dining, Penn Park, Whittier College grounds, and a vibrant community atmosphere with local events and farmers markets hosted every Wednesday and Friday.
