4747 Baltimore Street

Description

4747 Baltimore Street sits on a quiet street on a hillside very close to prime York Boulevard in Highland Park. The two-bedroom, two-bath bungalow is a seven-minute walk from Kumquat, Fondry Bakery, Belle's, Joy, the Hermosillo, vintage shopping and the entire vibrant scene along the boulevard. Occidental College is just 0.6 miles away, a few blocks north of York. The house was expanded and renovated in 2017 & 2018 -- a legal addition with a permit and corrected C of O, please note. Upgrades at that time include a tankless hot water heater, newer 200 amp electrical panel, and re-plumbing (predominantly copper today). The current owner repaired and enhanced the foundation and performed additional seismic retrofit shortly after purchasing the property among many other items. A final upgrade, the standing seam metal roof, was completed in 2025. Downstairs, the sunny primary bedroom opens onto the tiered 1,000+ square foot deck, which steps down the hillside and features a well-concealed & spacious outdoor storage closet. Each floor has its own mini-split for heating and cooling, for maximum efficiency. On the open-plan main floor, a bifold glass door opens to the view and another terrace, perfect for outdoor dining. At the quiet rear of the structure, the westerly views encompass sky, palm trees, and houses tucked into the greenery. In the evenings, light filters into both floors and settles across the decks as the sun drops behind the hills. In sum, a quiet sanctuary just blocks from one of Northeast Los Angeles' most appealing neighborhoods.
