Step into Los Angeles history with the Murdock House, a distinguished 122-year-old Mission Revival residence, designated as Historic-Cultural Monument No. 778. Situated at the base of Mt. Washington in Highland Park, this rare offering blends timeless architectural detail with modern restoration. Originally built in the Four-Square style, the three-story structure features preserved elements such as original hardwood floors, crown molding, leaded glass windows, vintage light fixtures, a grand staircase, built-in window seating, and a decorative fireplace. Currently zoned C4-1XL with Single Family Residential use, the property provides exceptional flexibility for live/work, or creative commercial/retail office use. The main level includes a welcoming living area, a large kitchen space with multiple access points, a formal dining room or conference room, and a half bath downstairs. The second floor offers four private bedrooms or offices and a full bath with a clawfoot tub, while the third story provides an additional private bedroom or office with hillside and mountain views. Recent upgrades include structural retrofitting, new HVAC, updated plumbing and electrical, and fresh interior/exterior paint. The gated lot features drought-tolerant landscaping, mature fruit trees, two off-street gated parking spaces, a single-car garage, and abundant street parking. Previously used as a cafe and most recently permitted for restaurant use, the building's prior commercial use offers additional potential, subject to buyer due diligence. With Mills Act property tax benefits in place and a location at the heart of vibrant Highland Park, this is a rare opportunity to own a piece of LA's architectural legacy with incredible flexibility for future use.
