2374 Landa St in Echo Park – 1bd/1ba, $449,000
This cozy hillside cottage located on an Elysian Heights stair street doesn’t have much square footage but more than makes up for it with it’s modern open floorplan, secluded treetop views and covetable deck space, providing more privacy and outdoor living than a condo ever could. Listing courtesy of Richard Wilkinson, Keller Williams Los Feliz.

5349 Ithica Ave in El Sereno – 2bd/2ba, $449,000
Why share a pool with residents of a building when you could have your very own pool (plus 1,000 square feet of updated living space) for the same price?! Listing provided courtesy of Fausto Martinez, Re/Max.

3415 Cazador St in Glassell Park – 2bd/1ba, $388,000
Ok, so the finishes on this 732 square foot home could use a little updating. But take into account the views and central location near Eagle Rock, Mt Washington, Highland Park, Glendale and the LA river and maybe you could justify some weekend warrior home improvement projects.

267 East Montana St in Pasadena – 2bd/1ba, $399,000
What this 668 square foot craftsman is lacking in interior space it makes up for in updated finishes (plus updated electrical, plumbing, and roof) and an epic lot size of nearly 7,000 square feet meaning maybe you could consider an addition or a pool someday. Lots of wiggle room to expand on this one. Listing provided courtesy of Matthew Salib, Re/Max Masters Realty.

3661 Gillig Ave in Montecito Heights, 2bd/1ba, $449,900
This 792 square foot bungalow has been thoughtfully redesigned from head to toe with big vaulted ceilings and a lofty open floor plan, new appliances, a reclaimed wood breakfast bar, butcher block counter tops and more. But with fruit trees, canyon views, and a detached artist studio on a lot size of 7,490 I can’t imagine you’ll be spending much time indoors.
