Set back from the street behind elegant wrought iron gates, 211 S Berendo #1 is a corner unit jewel within a magnificent 8-unit Italianate building: stunning Old World character meets the best of modern convenience at a truly unbelievable price! Past the garden courtyard and through the elegant foyer, enter Unit #1 and find yourself in a spacious living room framed by thick plank hardwood floors, elegant designer light fixtures, and decorative moldings that reflect the home's 1920s origins. The light, bright kitchen has been lovingly updated by the owner--a home chef--and features new upper cabinetry, dishwasher, Caesarstone counters, cord-free blinds, standalone pantry, vented range hood, and an attached dining area. Enjoy unwinding after a long day in the truly stunning bedroom, where original exposed brick walls frame massive windows that dapple the room in natural light and look out on the lush foliage outside. The unit is the only one in the building with new double-paned windows throughout - a massive upgrade - and has a unique floor plan that offers a bonus space perfect for a home office. Along with whole-building system updates completed in 2020, the unit also features two mini-split AC/heat systems, two closets in the primary bedroom, in-unit laundry, a dedicated parking spot in a gated lot, and a massive additional storage space in the basement. When it's time to entertain, enjoy cocktails in the courtyard or head up to the communal rooftop deck that features a BBQ, dining area, and panoramic views of the city, including Griffith Observatory and the Hollywood sign. Just blocks from the Metro, groceries, and restaurants, you're also moments away from hot spots in Koreatown, Virgil Village, Silver Lake, and Echo Park. If you've been looking for a way to stop renting and get into the market, a TIC sale may be the perfect fit for you - don't miss this rare and incredible blend of Old World charm, community, and affordability - maybe the biggest bang for your buck in all of Los Angeles. And if you'd like to live near a friend or family, move into 211 S Berendo together - Unit #2 just across the hall is also available now!
