2059 W 78th ST Los Angeles CA 90047 | MLS #26952839
Set on an expansive corner lot with standout curb appeal, 2059 W 78th offers a rare combination of character, valuable recent improvements, generous outdoor space, and exceptional potential for its next chapter. A magnificent mature tree anchors the front yard and creates an impressive sense of arrival, while the home’s prominent corner position gives the property openness and presence that immediately set it apart. The oversized lot extends around the residence, creating substantial yard space and flexibility rarely found at this price point. One of the property’s most compelling features is the detached garage with its own separate access from the main residence, creating an ideal setup to explore a future ADU, guest suite, private office, studio, or income-producing space. Its independent access could allow a future secondary space to function with greater privacy from the primary residence. Several of the home’s major systems have already received significant investment, including a new roof on the main residence and garage, completed in 2025; a new rooftop HVAC system, installed in 2025; newer windows; updated shutters; and a newer redwood fence. With many of these larger-ticket improvements already addressed, the next owner has the opportunity to focus on updating and personalizing the home to their own taste. With great bones, exceptional curb appeal, a large corner lot, mature landscaping, substantial outdoor space, and compelling ADU potential, 2059 W 78th Street is an opportunity to create something truly special while building upon improvements already made. A property with presence, flexibility, and room to evolve- ready for its next owner to make it their own.
