1506 Allison Avenue in Echo Park

New to market today is this stylishly modern California bungalow which has been reinvented by renowned Los Angeles architect, Barbara Bestor. Striking in a rich navy blue with crisp white details, this 2 bedroom, one bathroom home sits a top a sloping hillside in trendy Echo Park, just two blocks to Sunset Boulevard and very nearby the newly renovated Echo Park lake.

Inside, Bestor’s signature “bohemian modern” style is evident integrating a full plywood wall which ties together the kitchen and living spaces.

The galley style open kitchen includes modern appliances and the vaulted ceilings with luxury light fixtures expand the space.

Built-in storage underneath the media center, as well as the built-in sofa are classic Bestor details and serve to maximize efficiency. The warm red oak floors run throughout the home.

Even in the small blue-print of the house, 811 square feet, the interior space integrates a dining room for dinner parties and entertaining.

One of the two bedrooms is located just beyond the kitchen and is a unique lofted space. The room incorporates a closet area, built-in bookshelf and access to the sleeping area is up the ladder.

The master bedroom is large and receives plenty of light through the two large picture windows.

Recently renovated, the bathroom includes a walk-in shower with dual shower heads!

Outside, this premium Echo Park location allows you to relax and take in the mountain views, or to head out to shops and dining just a couple of blocks away.
