One-of-a-Kind Retreat with Unforgettable Backyard. Welcome to this charming ranch-style cottage located in the highly sought-after Michigan Park neighborhood of Whittier. With warm wood siding, classic stucco finishes, and unique pebble rock and brick accents surrounding the pool area, this home offers character and charm rarely found in today’s homes.
The property features 3 bedrooms and 2 fully remodeled bathrooms. One wing of the home includes a private primary suite with vaulted ceilings and its own en-suite bathroom. This section of the home is currently separated from the main living area and connects to a converted garage space configured with a living area and kitchenette, creating an excellent opportunity for multi-generational living, guest quarters, or potential ADU use. This private wing also enjoys its own separate side yard, offering added privacy and flexibility.
Back in the main portion of the home, two additional bedrooms offer generous closet space and share a beautifully updated guest bathroom featuring a modern walk-in shower. Inside, beautifully refinished original hardwood floors and an open-concept layout seamlessly connect the living room, dining area, and kitchen. Large windows fill the home with natural light while offering views of both the landscaped front yard and the spectacular backyard retreat. The spacious kitchen is designed for gathering and entertaining, featuring natural stone countertops, stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, a statement range hood, and a large center island with seating and ample storage.
Step outside to experience what truly sets this property apart. The saltwater pool and spa are surrounded by hand-selected stonework and custom landscaping. Built for entertaining, the backyard features a covered patio, painted concrete dance floor, basketball hoop, and space for pickleball or tennis. A custom-built treehouse with spiral staircase, charming swing set, gazebo-style seating area, and multiple lounge spaces create a backyard paradise you won’t soon forget. A large storage shed adds convenient storage for tools and equipment.
Additional highlights include solar panels, EV charging, tankless water heater, updated electrical panel, central HVAC, and laundry hookups.
