Enter into a breath taking open living room w/ fireplace, dining room and gourmet kitchen with an island to die for. Kitchen has all stainless appliances, Custom bamboo cabinets, and recycled counter tops. Both levels have impressive smoked white oak floors. The Beautiful master suite has a separate sitting area, walk-in closet and breath taking master bath.

Bonus studio/sound room with separate entry. And not to forget the great school district - Ivanhoe.

I recall this home when it was on the market last year, actually it had been on the market for a long time! Overpriced and the Sellers were slow to make price adjustments. Once the price came down it got allot of interest and finally sold to an Investor for $705,000. And now believe me its not the same property! The home was a definite fixer with allot of deferred maintenance and frankly it wasn't very appealing nor did it have a greatest floor plan. When I viewed this Tuesday I was excited by what they'd done and really like the redo, it's got an open floor plan with good indoor out space and they've created 2 wonderful decks that look out onto a large yard. There's room to build a pool and still enough outdoor space. Direct access from the garage and sound system throughout the house. The location is ideal and you can walk to many places of interest and it's in Ivanhoe! There's going to be allot of interest so if you would like to see the home please contact me at dansmyrealtor@gmail.com or call 323-839-3936. If you would like info on homes in Ivanhoe before they come on the market, please reach out and let's talk about your needs and how I can help you.

The Newest Listing in the Ivanhoe School District of Silver Lake

2424 W SILVER LAKE DR , LOS ANGELES ,CA 90039 $765,000


Traditional "Time Capsule" gem in the heart of Silver Lake. Factoring in the obvious care that was taken by original owner, it's easy to see how one is only a step or two away from unlocking all the self-evident potential that greets you upon entry. Pristine condition Wedgewood Stove, original Ash wood cabinets, Cork flooring in two bedrooms, and a Poured Linoleum kitchen floor are only a few items that hint at what just an easy touch of vision can bring to this property. Large Kidney shaped pool in back of house, with plenty of green for balance.The ample back yard lends itself to various patio ideas, including a re-furbishing of original Tiki Bar and dressing room area. Every turn of a corner in this U shaped Ranch layout makes it easy to imagine the great comfort that the original family created and the thriving memories that were reveled in thereafter. Great ind/outdr California Living, w/ the combination of lauded school and recreation area, help define this home as truly special.


So often I'm approached by Buyers asking if there are homes in Ivanhoe that aren't totally fixed and updated asking $1M or more? Well here you go? When I was told about this listing I was excited by the price point and location and couldn't wait to see it, so on Tuesday when I went to the Broker's Open I was actually surprised by the over all condition. Considering homes in this part of Ivanhoe district typically go for much more! The house is in need of updates and some real care, the layout of the this U shaped home is great and there's a pool that also needs to be cleaned and probably needs some maintenance. The Kitchen has a nice breakfast room and the tile in the bathes is in good shape. The Patio/Outdoor space could use some attention as well. Mostly deferred maintenance bit if the bones of this house are good then it's worth considering!

The location is ideal and you can walk to Ivanhoe! There's going to be allot of interest so if you would like to see the home please contact me at dansmyrealtor@gmail.com or call 323-839-3936.

This 3 bed, 2 bath 2,300+ square foot French Provincial home offers an

Why hasn't this new Ivnahoe listing sold?

3740 ARBOLADA RD , LOS ANGELES ,CA 90027

LP: $729,000

This is your chance to own a lovely home in Los Feliz, in Ivanhoe school district for an affordable price. Originally a duplex this beautiful mid-century has been lovingly converted to a single family home. Gleaming hardwood floors lead to a dining room that opens to a beautifully updated kitchen. There is a large living room as well. The bathrooms have also been refurbished. Off the dining room is a lovely patio. Behind the patio is hillside with a flat pad with great views at the top.

When I was headed to see this home a couple of weeks ago two things came to mind. One, why would the owner have changed it from the duplex that it once was into a Single Family Home? And two, what was the redo going to look like? Well, I can tell you that I was pleasantly surprised. The living room was a good size and there's was plenty of light. While the floor plan is a little odd with two doors to enter from but there are things that could be done to help the flow of the house. The kitchen is nicely updated and I like what they've done with the Master Bedroom. While the second kitchen is really more of a laundry room I think it could easily be turned into a 3rd bedroom which would make the most sense and add value indeed. In addition you could have a totally separate family room apart from the formal living room. There are some things that could be a challenge but nothing that can't be worked out. The non through street is a plus since there's little traffic and you're off Los Feliz blvd but you can't hear any of the traffic as the home is farther down Arbolada. 2Br, 2Ba updated, around 1500 sqft with the possibility of a 3rd bedroom for $779,000 and in the Ivanhoe School district. If you would like more information or would like to view this home please contact me at dansmyrealtor@gmail.com or call 323-839-3936.
