4212 W Avenue 40

This charming Spanish-style home is nestled into Glassell Park in northeast LA with easy freeway access just 20 min from downtown. The classic cream stucco exterior with terracotta roof pops against the manicured front yard. A curved path leads to the Old-World turret entrance, complete with an antique peek-a-boo fixture in the front door. The house embraces you into its formal living room with a warm, earthy, rustic feel. The heart of the home is the stunning fireplace with beautiful tiles and artful sunburst brick design. An arched opening lead to a spacious dining room with crystal chandelier and a wall of shuttered windows. One hallway connects to three similarly sized bedrooms, all with closets, ceiling fans, windows, and crystal doorknobs; and additional storage space has crystal knobs too. The bathroom has strong Pink Panther vibes with original black-and-pink details and checkerboard throughout. The retro kitchen is complete with funky flower-patterned vinyl flooring, plenty of storage in the honey blond wooden cabinets, and a large window at the kitchen sink. Another arched doorway leads to the half-moon sunny breakfast nook where you can enjoy your coffee gazing out of the surrounding bay windows. There’s a small laundry area with an extra shower by the back door that leads to the fenced-in backyard. In back, a detached garage with covered side patio sits next to a little grassy yard encircled with thriving greenery and trees…a dreamy urban respite.
