Perched just above the street for added privacy, this thoughtfully updated 1934 bungalow blends vintage charm with essential modern amenities. Ideally located between Pasadena and Downtown LA, and moments from the vibrant heart of Highland Park, 4406 Berenice offers the perfect balance of city access and hillside tranquility.Inside, you'll find refinished hardwood floors throughout, a formal living room centered around a classic wood-burning fireplace, and a recently remodeled cook's kitchen that's both stylish and functional. A formal dining room, an oversized vintage-style bath with separate tub and shower, and a generously sized primary bedroom with custom window treatments complete the main living space.Thoughtful upgrades include seismic retrofitting (with permits), copper plumbing, a newer roof, chimney improvements, and an engineered hillside drainage system. Outside, terraced native plantings lead to a detached home office, a peaceful patio retreat, and a hillside terraced deck.
