Here’s a cozy little Craftsman in Highland Park built in 1912 and updated over the years. It home certainly offers curb appeal, with a neatly trimmed lawn and a stone walkway leading to a large front porch.
The home contains two bedrooms and one full bathroom, with just 816 square feet of living space, though that may not include an upstairs den, which is equipped with a second bathroom. Per the listing, this space was added by a previous owner—presumably without permits. It may not be strictly legal, but it does offer some nice possibilities for future owners.
Interior features of the residence include a stone fireplace, built-in shelving, and wide windows that look to be original.
The house sits on a 6,014-square-foot lot with a large backyard and a storage shed. It last sold in 2012 for just $285,000. As a sign of how hot the neighborhood has become, it’s now asking $625,000.

Eames chair and a mattress on the floor. Great staging!

And turn on some lights. Why is it so dingy in there?

That under-powered and outdated projector isn’t going to provide a great picture all by itself!

Love the carpeting in the bedroom….
It looks wet and moldy.

The selection of homes for sale featured on CurbedLA is difficult to comprehend. None of the other Curbed cities have such a bizarre selection of "For Sale In…" homes.

They pick the ones that get people talking – ups their "engagement" metrics to sell ads at higher prices.

That price is ridiculous. The housing bubble is not far from bursting once again. Whoever buys a house in the next several months, maybe a year or two, is going to be left holding an upside down mortgage.

Probably sits between two gang member families. Always be wary of people selling homes in 5 years or less.

yes, funny comments (I lived in Highland Park for nine years) but to me the horror is those pavers in the front room! yuk

Looks like Home Depot had a sale on flooring tiles that they simply couldn’t pass up!
