Sterling Silver Lake Craftsman asks $1.5M

Los Angeles is filled with beautiful Craftsman homes, but it’s a treat to find to one that has been updated for today’s tastes without losing its charm. This bright three-bedroom home in prime Silver Lake still has a bevy of restored built-ins, moldings, and panelings. The kitchen was remodeled but with its beadboard, simple cabinets, and tile, it doesn’t look out of place in the 1912 house.

Other enviable features of this property include its location in walking distance to Sunset Junction, an appealing front porch, decorative fireplace, and a detached garage that has been converted into a pretty office.

The asking price is $1.495 million.
