Fixer with Views in the Hills of Eagle Rock! Featured

Sold! Walk up the 105 steps to this 1938-built house and enter another world--and it's not just the oxygen deprivation from your hike. There are views of the Verdugos from the back of the house, there's a 10,000 square foot lot mostly in the front, there are hardwood floors in the original part of the house, there's a 2-car garage at the street level. There are bonuses like a second bathroom and an enclosed covered patio. Why is it listed for only $399,000? Because it's a fixer! The owners lived here for several decades, running up and down the steps, living a very healthy lifestyle until they were well over 90. They didn't have the time or inclination to do much maintenance or housekeeping, so this house needs a lot of work. But what a retreat from the cares of the city below! Almost like being in the country, living among the birds and other wildlife. But if you lived here, you would be a mile from Cafe de Leche in Highland Park, only .3 mile from the nearest Starbucks and 1.3 miles from Swork in Eagle Rock. This is a trust sale and is strictly as-is. Offers due by 12pm on Tuesday, January 23.
