Inside, the home retains much of its original charm while benefiting from thoughtful improvements over the years. Updates include renovated bathrooms, central air conditioning, newer windows installed in 2018, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, and a newer roof completed in 2019.

The property also incorporates significant infrastructure upgrades, including a 10kW solar system with a 30kW battery backup system installed in 2023, providing additional energy efficiency and reliability. An EV charger and detached garage add further convenience.

Set on an oversized double lot, the property includes fully RTI (Ready-to-Issue) approved plans for a detached 2-bedroom, 1-bath ADU with an additional two-car garage. With planning and permitting already completed, the property offers a unique opportunity for future expansion, guest accommodations, rental income potential, or multigenerational living.

Mature avocado, lemon, and lime trees contribute to the property’s private setting, while its location provides convenient access to Downtown Los Angeles, Ernest E. Debs Regional Park, and the shops, restaurants, and cafes of Highland Park.

This Montecito Heights property offers a combination of views, privacy, modern infrastructure, and future development potential in one of Northeast Los Angeles’ most distinctive hillside neighborhoods.
