5956 W 85th Place, Los Angeles, CA 90045
This unique and beautifully upgraded property lives like a single-family home while offering the added benefit of a fully separate guest or income unit. The main residence, approximately 1,250 square feet, was thoughtfully expanded in 2016 with a permitted 450-square-foot addition that enhanced both form and function, creating a spacious primary suite, adding a convenient laundry closet, and expanding the kitchen for modern living. Inside, the home features 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, complemented by a remodeled kitchen and stylish finishes throughout. Hardwood floors, quartz countertops, and carefully curated lighting from Rejuvenation, West Elm, and Room & Board bring a warm, elevated design aesthetic. Solid brass hardware adds a timeless, high-quality touch. Dual-pane Milgard windows enhance comfort and efficiency. Step outside to a truly exceptional backyard retreat. Designed for both entertaining and relaxation, the space features a stunning 2019-built deck crafted from solid Balau wood, known for its durability and rich tone. Surrounded by lush native landscaping, the yard offers privacy and a peaceful, resort-like feel. The other attached 2-bedroom, 1-bath unit (approximately 800 square feet) is fully furnished and has been successfully utilized as a mid- or long-term rental, providing an excellent opportunity for supplemental income or hosting extended guests. This legally designated duplex features two well-maintained units, both delivered vacant, giving the next owner full flexibility. Whether you're seeking a primary residence with income potential or a flexible multi-generational living arrangement, this property truly offers the best of both worlds. Additional highlights include upgraded electrical panels for both units, recently updated copper plumbing, a Tesla charger for convenient at-home EV charging, Ring security cameras for added peace of mind, and a smart B-hyve WiFi-controlled irrigation system servicing both the front and rear yards.
