Rare opportunity to purchase a pedigreed Greene & Greene architectural landmark, contribute a lasting impact on a neighborhood and experience the pride of owning one of the City's noteworthy historic properties. The Lucy E. Wheeler House was designed on this corner lot for a businesswoman in 1905 by Charles Sumner Greene and Henry Mather Greene, and is now considered to be the LAST remaining documented Greene & Greene within the City of Los Angeles boundaries. Most details of this two-story home are remarkably intact, including its wood trim, cabinetry and doors; brick fireplace (in living room); and four original custom ceiling light fixtures -- made of wood, metal and yellow slag glass -- in the living room, dining room, entry and sunroom. The rear 1920s addition is still true to the Arts & Crafts motifs but is a very flexible space, readily adaptable to an owner's desired new use, such as a generous home office, a family / expanded kitchen, media room, or private guest quarters. This very livable home features good indoor-outdoor flow, including a welcoming covered front porch, a second floor open balcony terrace above; two sunrooms; and multiple entrances opening to sun-filled rear garden area. Original detached two-car garage & storage room. Located in the Harvard Heights Historic Preservation Overlay Zone (HPOZ) to which it is a contributing structure, this historic property is also City of Los Angeles HCM #991; a Mills Act Historic property with resulting property tax benefits; and is further protected by a comprehensive interior and exterior Conservation Easement monitored by the Los Angeles Conservancy. Prior owner occupant Martin Eli Weil, a noted restoration architect, researched and began restoration of the property during his 25-year ownership. More restoration work and ongoing maintenance is needed, and is in fact required under both the Easement and the multiple historic protection designations of this property. Harvard Heights has a strong neighborhood association, and there are great coffee houses, art venues and restaurants nearby.
