Luxury is an experience. You’ll be reminded of this every time you return to this home on a palm tree-lined street in prime Echo Park.
It’s one of four Spanish-style residences offered for sale in a new Tenancy in Common (TIC) community named Casa Laveta. The unit, occupying the lower floor, has a private yard with new landscaping arranged to grow into a privacy screen. Inside, large windows fill the space with natural light while framing the surrounding green scenery.
Reimagined with reverence to historic preservation while simultaneously underscored by a modern aesthetic, the dwelling mirrors the features of the upper TIC residence currently for sale but feels uniquely it’s own. Original details range from coved ceilings and a Batchelder-style fireplace surrounded by built-in bookshelves. Open to one another, the dining and kitchen feature large windows framing a blanket of green ivy. Custom-built cabinetry lines the dining room wall while cleverly hiding a refrigerator. The custom cabinetry carries over to the kitchen, where leather-finished marble countertops surround a Bertazzoni Professional range.
Casa Laveta is located at 1444 Laveta Terrace. You’ll find Cookbook, Bacetti, and Tilda a few blocks away on Echo Park Blvd. And Canyon Coffee, a local roasting company, will take residence this Spring on ‘Chicken’s Corner.’
Asking $869,000 with an HOA estimated at $300, the dwelling has one parking spot.
