Why will this house sell? Maybe because it's on one of the best streets in Silver Lake!

This Spanish fixer is a 4br 2ba around 1900 sft is on one of the best streets in the area!

Built in 1926 this house could be a great home. With hardwood floors a huge living room with fireplace and formal dining room with french doors opening up to the front patio, this house is going to get a lot of interest. There are 4 bedrooms, 2 on each side of the house which we like, and there's a large breakfast room off the kitchen as well as a service porch with access outside. The lot is huge at 9,500 square feet with multiple flat terraces as well as room for gardens and an outdoor deck for entertaining. The house is in need of some real updating and both bathrooms and kitchen would need to be redone but that's why it's going to list for only $ 719,000! So if you're looking for size, location, Ivanhoe School District and the possibility to make your own dream home and don't want to spend a $1,000,000 on something that someones already redone to their own taste then you should see this house. It won't be on the market until next week but I can get you in now! As always if you would like to see this house or any other houses in the area please e-mail mrivanhoespecialist@gmail.com or call 323-839-3936 We also wanted to thank http://www.la.curbed.com/ for the honorable mention of our blog on their site last week.

Thanks,

Now that this has been on the market awhile, this is a good time to make an offer!


2647 Locksley PL, Los Angeles, CA 90039
This should have sold by now, it's in good shape and has income potential!
We like this 2-story Character Spanish with wood floors, fireplace, separate dining room, and a redone eat-in kitchen. The first floor includes 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, a formal living room with great light. The lower level features a studio-style apartment with a separate entrance and its own kitchenette and bathroom. You could use it as an office and work space like the current owners or lease it bringing in some income($1400). Included is central air & heat, entertainment patio and a flat grassy private backyard. It's a nice street with good pride of ownership. Now that it's been on the market for awhile, this is a great time to make an offer! If you're looking to get into the area and want a home that is nicely done then you should come to the open house this Sunday and see for yourself. It's close to shops and restaurants and is in the Ivanhoe Elementary District. To view this or any other homes in the area please e-mail mrivanhoespecialist@gmail.com or call 323-839-3936.

This is the newest listing in Ivanhoe School District


This house is a little confusing at first.
It's a traditional home with a guest unit but the upper floor is currently divided into two units and it could be returned to a 3BR, 3BA . That's really the only way it'll work. It has good views of the mountains from the spacious family room that was once the back patio and hardwood floors. Some original detailing, and character throughout. The guest unit is a bachelor with private entrance. Located on a tree lined cul-de-sac with a “Back East” feeling, close to Trader Joe’s, Gelson’s, and within Ivanhoe School boundary. The challenge, like that of the other Waverly is while the back yard/outdoor area is nice it faces the 5 Fwy and there's noise. I've said it before, some people don't mind but at $ 822,000 you think you could have some peaceful enjoyment. Having said that, if you're looking for something that needs re-figuring and are up for the challenge you may want to check this house out. It will be open this Sunday from 1-4. As always if you're interested in this house or any other home in the area please call 323-839-3936 or e-mail mrivanhoespecialist@gmail.com Your Ivanhoe Specialist.

This is the best deal for the size in the Ivanhoe School District

2923 Waverly Dr Los Angeles Ca 90039

This is a bank owned foreclosure!!!
It's a nice home behind gates in prestigious area of Silver Lake. With sweeping views from most rooms and redone tastefully into move in condition this one doesn't need much and there is a bonus unit which was a recording studio but could be home office or separate guest house. Bank owned means it's ready to sell but the bank won't do much in the way of credits or repairs. The only draw back is some freeway noise since it's on the north side of Waverly but for the size, condition and price we think this home's certainly worth looking at. If you want more information about this house or others in the area please call 323-839-3936 or e-mail mrivanhoespecialist@gmail.com Your Ivanhoe school specialist.

See this house in the Ivanhoe School District before in comes on the market!


2958 Waverly Los Angeles Ca 90039

This 2Br 1.5 Ba + Den will definitely get allot of attention when it comes on the market next week and I think you may want to see it before the crowds!

This house hasn't been on the market since 1990 and I'm sure it needs updating and upgrading, it's around 1,450 sqft and the lot is around 11,150 so there may be room to add on. We haven't seen it but will his weekend. This is a interesting street and the location is good, close to shopping, restaurants and freeways. Built in 1927 with a big front yard this house will get plenty of interest being in the Ivanhoe School District. If you would like more information or would like to see this house before the masses please e-mail mrivanhoespecialist@gmail.com or call 323-839-3936 Thanks, Mr. Ivanhoe

This week's newest listing in the Ivanhoe School District!


1916 Lucile Ave, Los Angeles Ca 90039


Hi everyone,

I wanted to share this charming, three bedroom, two bathroom, 1937 Spanish home that I saw today. It’s perched high in the hills of Silver Lake and offers sweeping, panoramic views of the Observatory, the Hollywood sign and the San Gabriel Mountains. Great light floods the spacious living room with vaulted ceilings and the gas fireplace has been totally redone. The dining room offers magnificent views as well and original built in cabinets. It has beautiful hardwood floors throughout. There are amazing views from large screened in porch that’s off the living room and there’s a large flat concrete back area great for outdoor entertaining. The kitchen and baths are a little dated with a 80s vibe but that’s about the only draw back. Of course there are steps but it's worth is to get these fantastic views. It’s in the Ivanhoe school district and that’s why we think it's worth taking a look at. If you would like more information on this house or other homes in the Ivanhoe School District please e-mail mrivanhoespecialist@gmail.com or call 323-839-3936 It’ll be open this Sunday from 1-4 If you can make it please tell them Mr. Ivanhoe sent you.

Thanks and have a great weekend!

Mr. Ivanhoe

The newest Listing in the Invanhoe School District!



This is a good house, on one of the best streets in the Moreno Highlands.

After last week's disappointing viewing of 2641 Waverly it was good to see this updated & reworked home with a nice artistic vibe. The owners have updated and upgraded this home since purchasing it in 1989. It has a step down LR w/ tall ceilings, fp & patio doors that lead to the deck for outside living with peek-a-boo views of the lake. The formal dining room is next to the cooks kitchen w/upscale stainless appliances. The master bedroom with outside seating is great + 2 more bed rms, one used as office & 2 ba. We really like the family room / wd burning stove as well as the patio doors that open to the landscaped pvt yrd. The 3rd bath + wine closet w/ tasting rm. are downstairs, It nice to see something that shows pride of ownership, good floor plan and a price that's within reason. If you would like to see this home or other homes in the Ivanhoe School district please e-mail mrivanhoespecialist@gmail.com or call 323-839-3936
