Property Description
Built in 1923, this California bungalow celebrates its history while embracing modern life. Original hardwood floors and period details set the stage, while an open layout connects seamlessly to a stainless-steel kitchen with farmhouse sink and subway tile. The bath balances vintage charm with a original tile and built-in's and reinvention with crisp white hex tile and a modern mirror. But 5051 Buchanan isn't just a home and an asset, it's a whole lifestyle. With three bedrooms, light-filled living spaces, and a backyard retreat shaded by a mature tree and anchored by a patio and lime tree, the home flexes to fit your needs. Afternoons turn into al fresco dinners, weekends into gatherings, and there's even room for a pool, swing sets, garden boxes or dog heaven. The design extends beyond the main house: a finished detached garage with HVAC and glass sliders invites reinvention: music studio, art lab, home office, gym, or income-producing ADU? It's architecture that evolves with you. And the setting? Think NYC's East Village energy meets L.A.'s sunshine. London grit and charm meets California ease. Seattle in the '90s, when the music scene made every night electric, creatives with kids, diversity, community - that's today's Highland Park. Steps from York Boulevards' restaurants, cafes, York Park, Bob Baker's, venues and bars (WalkScore 90), you can live car-lite or car free and own your own creative sanctuary. This is the best of New York and Los Angeles combined - urban energy, neighborhood soul, and a home with enduring character that will fit your needs for decades to come.
