About 1556 Helen Dr
Check out this little slice of heaven in East La! This duplex property has been recently updated and offers the perfect blend of comfort and style. With attention to detail evident in every corner, this home boasts a range of attractive features that will capture your heart. Win-win! Head up the stairs and welcome in! As you enter, the stunning sunroom is the first point of entry. Make this sunny spot your office, reading nook, or simply house your plant babies here and let them thrive thanks to all the natural sunlight. Pass through and you enter the living that feels oh-so cozy thanks to the decorative fireplace and built-in shelving. Making your way through the arched entry is your new fabulous kitchen. This kitchen is a chef's delight, equipped with stainless steel appliances including a fridge and a gas range stove. Add your own microwave or toaster oven if you choose and the space is complete. We love the new tile flooring and creamy cabinet colors that add a breath of fresh air to this darling spot. The two bedrooms are beyond spacious and offer amazing light throughout as well. The first bathroom is located in between the bedrooms and features new tile work as well as optimal vanity storage and a shower/tub combo. Hoping for 2 bathrooms? Well, you're in luck! Located near the back bedroom, and back entrance, is a second full bath equipped with a standing shower. Speaking of the back entrance, this unit comes with the added luxury of two dedicated parking spaces in the back, providing hassle-free parking! If you don’t need both spots though, use one as a private patio space and add some outdoor furniture to enjoy on your own. If you need both spaces though, don’t fret, there is a chill communal patio to enjoy upfront whenever you need! Not to mention now you are minutes away from Tierra Mia coffee shop for a quick coffee pick me up and other delicious dining spots around town! With easy access to the 710 & 10 freeway DTLA, Highland Park, Cal State LA, and more LA faves are super accessible! Welcome home!
