2229 Echo Park Ave · Apartment for Rent

Set above the street, this Echo Park home pairs classic character with a thoughtful, modern renovation. Inside, warm hardwood floors and recessed lighting run through an open living area that flows directly into the kitchen, where custom Shaker-style wood cabinetry, dark stone counters, a stainless-steel hood, and a professional-style range anchor the space. A peninsula with seating keeps the cook connected to the room, and a pass-through window opens to a sunlit breakfast nook wrapped in wood-framed windows, with a built-in banquette and treetop views across the neighborhood. The primary bathroom is a standout, finished in deep green tile with a frameless glass walk-in shower, built-in niche and bench, and a tiled vanity with wood cabinetry. A second full bath offers a tub-shower and pedestal sink in crisp white tile. Both bedrooms are bright and well-proportioned; the second features floor-to-ceiling built-in shelving and a glass-paneled door, making it equally suited to a guest room or home office. A full lower level provides generous flexible space for a gym, game room, workshop, or storage. Outside, the property opens onto an expansive yard that is a rare find in Echo Park, with mature fruit trees, terraced landscaping, and multiple areas to spread out. A private flagstone patio with evening lighting serves as a true outdoor living room for lounging and dining, overlooking the hillside canopy, while a brick-lined side patio adds a quiet spot for morning coffee or container gardening. All of this sits moments from Echo Park Lake, Sunset Boulevard's cafes and restaurants, Dodger Stadium, and easy access to Silver Lake and Downtown.
