1921 Silver Lake Bungalow With Sweet Backyard Asking $785k

This 1920s place is just south of Sunset Boulevard and a block off of Silver Lake Boulevard: prime real estate. The three-bedroom, two-bathroom house has a dining room, breakfast nook, and, upstairs, a "sun room." The kitchen has been remodeled and sports stainless steel appliances and a subway tile backsplash. But really, it's the backyard that's the coolest feature here. The large, multi-level deck has lots of space and a view to boot. To assuage fears of buying an older house that needs lots of internal work, the listing says that there's upgraded electrical and plumbing, plus dual-zoned air conditioning and heating. The foundation's even been retrofitted. Last sold in 2004 for $565,000, it's now asking $785,000.
