A RARE Spanish Charmer in the coveted historic South Carthay neighborhood. The home's original architectural detailing has been lovingly preserved - coved ceilings, moldings, stained glass window and skylight, and decorative fireplace. This bright and airy 3 bedroom and 2 bath home has a separate breakfast room and formal dining room with plenty of built-ins for storage. An enchanting outdoor courtyard with a beautiful brick fireplace is the perfect spot for entertaining or alfresco dining. Beyond the courtyard is a separate grassy garden area with a herb and vegetable bed surrounded by several mature fruit trees (orange, Meyer lemon, tangerine, kumquat). The permitted converted garage is detached and makes for the perfect home office. It is fitted out with carriage doors that open up completely to create an inviting indoor/outdoor feeling while you work (garage not included in the home's square footage). New HVAC, security system, updated electrical and plumbing.
