Description

This 1930s Spanish Revival in Crenshaw Manor captures the warmth and character of the era, with natural light, preserved details, and thoughtful updates throughout. As you enter through the original front door, you're welcomed by a charming foyer that opens into the main living spaces. To the left, the large living room is anchored by the original fireplace, which features ornate plasterwork and serves as the centerpiece of the room. Moorish stepped arches lead into the dining room and living area, adding a distinctive architectural flourish and enhancing the flow between spaces. To the right, the kitchen has been completely reimagined with custom walnut cabinetry, porcelain low-profile countertops, and a full suite of brand-new KitchenAid appliances; including a gas range, French door refrigerator, and panel-ready dishwasher. A Saltillo tile floor in a custom color grounds the space with warmth and history, echoing the home's original architecture. There's also space for a breakfast nook and a dedicated laundry room outfitted with an LG Single Unit WashTower, custom storage, and side-door access to the driveway. A skylight brightens the hallway that leads to four bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The front bedroom features a walk-in closet and original wedding cake plaster detailing on the ceiling. The hallway bath offers Zia cement tile floors, a freestanding shower, deep soaking tub, and polished nickel fixtures. Two additional bedrooms offer flexible use as guest rooms, office, or nursery. At the end of the hall, the expansive primary suite features French doors to the backyard, a large walk-in closet plus second sliding closet, and an en suite bath finished with emerald green shower tile. Throughout the home, original red oak hardwood floors have been beautifully refinished, and select rooms retain original plaster walls with Santa Fe texture, adding warmth and depth to the interiors. Architectural details like coved ceilings and arched pass-throughs further reflect the home's heritage. The backyard invites easy entertaining with a small deck, grassy area, and a private space behind the garage perfect for al fresco dining or lounging. The detached garage has finished walls for added versatility as a gym, studio, or storage space. The landscaping was designed for both form and function, with new bougainvilleas, agave, yellow oleander, and ficus hedging in front, and a backyard that includes fig and lemon trees, a gold medallion shade tree and more bouganvillias. A new lawn, gravel zones with pea gravel and decomposed granite, drip irrigation, and a Rainbird controller keep things green year-round.Extensive upgrades bring modern convenience: new HVAC with a 4-ton electric heat pump, new clay and cool roof system, full electrical rewiring with a 200-amp panel, upgraded plumbing with new risers, attic insulation, new dual-glazed low-e windows, and custom wood windows along the west. The home also features a Rinnai Super High Efficiency Plus tankless water heater and a Google Nest thermostat. Also added are new wood privacy fencing and gates, Ring smart security including video doorbell and floodlights, and outdoor lighting. The entire home was architecturally designed, structurally engineered and permitted through LADBS. A termite treatment was completed in May 2025. Located on a quiet tree-lined street, the home is just moments from the Metro E Line and K Line, Kenneth Hahn Park hiking trails, and a short drive to downtown Culver City, West Adams, USC Village, and LAX.
