Tucked into the tree-lined tranquility of the prime Mar Vista neighborhood of Glenwood, this 1947 bungalow is more than just a home, it's a lifestyle. A rare blend of original charm and thoughtful updates, it offers the kind of inviting charm and original details that's increasingly hard to find. From the moment you step inside, you're greeted by glowing hardwood floors, a brick fireplace, and natural light pouring through oversized windows and lush landscaping. Built-in's, warm wood details, and vintage tile echo a time when design and craftsmanship came first. Gently modernized with stainless steel appliances, updated lighting, newer kitchen cabinets, a sunny herb garden window and breakfast nook. Living area is open and connected, with one of the original three bedrooms transformed into a cozy den that's ideal for lounging, reading, homework or an office. Out back, the pergola-shaded deck and large yard expands your living space, with mature fruit trees, and the soothing rhythm of hummingbirds passing through. It's your private slice of serenity that's ready for relaxed gatherings, quiet mornings, kids playing and sunny pet naps. A detached guest house with its own 3/4 bathroom adds ultimate flexibility: guest suite, office, creative space, all of the above, you name it. And with access to the garage and trash pick-up from the alley, even everyday tasks feel easier and ensures privacy. Located in one of LA's most beloved and community-focused pockets, you're just blocks from award-winning Mar Vista Elementary & Daniel Webster STEAM Magnet Middle, a bustling farmers market, Whole Foods, the Mar Vista Rec Center as well as quaint cafes and restaurants. Proximity, bike lanes and nearby public transit make it easy to live without a car or to use it far less. Whether you're looking for your forever family home, a downsizing dream, starter home or a soulful space all to yourself, this sunny, story-rich Mar Vista classic offers it all: charm, comfort, sea breezes, safety and sunshine in a highly desirable location.
