LOCALLA

Perched on a quiet hillside street, 3306 Minto Court is a charm-filled Spanish retreat in the heart of El Sereno. From the moment you pass through the walled hacienda-style front garden, find yourself in a light-filled 2 bed/1 bath casita where classic architectural character meets the kind of thoughtful modern upgrades that make life easy. The living room exudes warmth and style: gleaming hardwood floors and wood-paneled walls lead to a built-in dinette area perfect for enjoying meals while gazing at views of the mountains beyond. Enjoy cooking in a fully renovated kitchen with stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, and plenty of storage. Downstairs, past the dedicated laundry room, find a 132 sqft basement with built-in shelving offering a multitude of possibilities--a wine cellar for your favorite finds, or simply a dream space for organization and storage. Outside, find a fully renovated detached 180 sqft office space accented by elegant tile and French doors that open out onto lush greenery--an inspiring place to work, create, or host guests. The outdoor spaces are where the home truly shine. The current owners have transformed the yard into an entertainer's paradise: two separate fire pit lounges (chic outdoor furniture included!), string lights draping past mature avocado, pomegranate, and orange trees, and lush drought-tolerant plantings evoke resort-style living at its finest. Enjoy dining al fresco with friends and end your evenings curled up on the sofa with a drink and a blanket beside the fire. Practical upgrades make life here as effortless as it is beautiful: the home boasts fully paid-off solar panels that eliminate your electric bill, new roof on main house and office (2024), new electrical panel (2024), central HVAC, EV charging station, whole-house water filtration system, alarm system, double-paned windows updated with new flashing, and more. Located less than a mile from Rose Hill Park and the edge of Debs Park nature reserve, you're also centrally located to DTLA and all the hot shopping and dining in NELA (as well as El Sereno hot spots like Evil Cooks and lil'East Coffee). Don't miss your chance for the best of LA living at an unbelievable price--with its timeless architecture, modern conveniences and breathtaking indoor/outdoor balance, 3306 Minto Court will remind you why you fell in love with California in the first place.
