As you follow the tree-lined boulevards around Silver Lake, just across from Dorothy Park, this Lake Boulevard cottage is ready for someone new to call it "Home". The stained concrete drive lined with stacked stone retaining walls stands out from all the others and leads up to your three car heated and insulated garage (one stall is tandem) and a winding staircase and walk. The brick facade draws you in and once inside you are greeted by a large entry flanked by a formal living room and formal dining room. The formal dining space features a pass through to the kitchen and convenient French doors that close off the entryway when needed. The extra large eat-in kitchen has ample counterspace and cabinetry, great for prepping larger meals or a quick casual meal at the kitchen table. Through the hall is a convenient half bath and access to the cozy screen porch, deck and nature filled backyard. The more than half acre lot is flat and great for both activities and entertaining. Back inside, the main floor family room connects you to two secondary bedrooms. One bedroom offers a European style in-room sink, great closet built-ins, and a surprising way to access the upper level. Back into the heart of the home, the formal living room is great for warming up by the fireplace or reading a book by the large bay window. Upstairs there are two large bedrooms both with massive walk-in closets. One bedroom not only has access to the walk-through bath, but also to a flex room - great as an office, nursery, more closet space or whatever your heart may desire. It also features built-ins, a fun and funky fireplace, and a trapdoor down to the first floor bedroom! The lower level gives you even more living space along with a 3/4 bath and plenty of storage room in the utility room. With so many features and unique characteristics and just a bit of sweat equity and imagination, you are sure to turn this into your very own fairy-tale cottage.
