Revamped 1950s hillside home in Elysian Heights asks $849K

This agreeable little home sits in the Elysian Heights neighborhood of Echo Park. Shaded by surrounding trees, it offers views across the nearby hills.

The house was built in 1950 and sports a host of recent updates, including renovated bathrooms and new kitchen countertops and appliances. Other interior features include hardwood floors, built-in shelving, clerestory windows, and a painted brick fireplace in the living room.

But the home’s most inviting features are its outdoor spaces. Sitting on a 6,558-square-foot lot, it opens to a back deck with room for outdoor seating. Below the deck are separate patio spaces connected with the hilly backyard. The home is fronted by a manicured garden and an attached carport.

The 1,182-square-foot house has two bedrooms and one bathroom, along with a separate downstairs unit with a bathroom and an office or guest room.

Asking price is $849,000.
