Just listed: adorable "Snow White" cottage in Burbank for $759,000

Judy Graff Properties' agent Dayna Cussler has just listed this cutie at 313 N. Hollywood Way, in the middle of Burbank's media district. Rumor has it that this home, and the several other "Snow White" cottages like it on the block, were designed and built by Disney artists.  It has been repurposed for today's standards with an open beam ceiling, big open kitchen with all-new counter tops and appliances, redone bath and two bedrooms.  Of course, there is HVAC, swanky light fixtures, a fireplace, and brand new wood floors.  There's a sunny backyard and a parking pad from the alley as well.  The location is stellar too -- it's close to one of the outstanding Burbank public schools and is a short distance to both the studios and Toluca Lake.  The property specs are: built in 1950, 840 sf, 2500+ sf lot, and a list price of $759,000. For a private showing, please call or text Dayna at 818-590-5944.

Another Burbank flip sold

Dayna Cussler listed this classic flip at 229 N. Whitnall, Burbank 91505 and sold it just five weeks later for $795,000.  The buyers (one of whom is a real estate agent) were thrilled to be getting a house in the coveted Stevenson Elementary school district.  The 1,037 square hoot house features a redone kitchen and bath, 2 bedrooms, den, and large lot.  Nice work, Dayna!

241 Valle Vista in Monrovia just sold to my buyers

Monrovia is an adorable community just east of Pasadena and nestled next to the mountains.  My buyers, Nayiri and Krikor, just purchased this cute two-houses-on-one-lot property as it's perfect for their extended family.  The picture shows the front house; the back house is much bigger; and there's a gorgeous oak tree (peeking over the roof) between the two homes.  The property sold for $710,000; Monrovia properties tend to be a little less expensive than properties closer to central L.A.

3051 Tyburn in Atwater Village just closed for $850,000

My clients just landed a home in their dream neighborhood -- Atwater Village in east L.A.  It wasn't easy -- this neighborhood has been on real estate fire for about a year now, and this was my clients' third offer (and certainly this house was the best of the three).  We started working together about a year ago and I'm delighted to have gotten to know Alec and Cait.

The house features two bedrooms, one redone bath and a redone kitchen in 650 square feet.  It also has a partially converted garage -- complete with working beer taps! -- a green front yard surrounded by tall hedges, raised vegetable beds and built-in outdoor seating.  The area is hipster heaven and features a weekend farmers' market along with many cool eateries and shops.  Congratulations, A&C!

You say there aren't any affordable homes in great neighborhoods? Check out 229 Whitnall in Burbank.

Judy Graff Properties' agent Dayna Cussler has just listed this sweet traditional at 229 Whitnall in Burbank.  It features 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, 1037 sf. and a family room/bonus room.  As you see, the period details are still there but everything else has been refreshed. It has a big backyard (7500 sf lot), is in a great school area, and is ripe for an addition or ADU.  And -- it is listed for $795,000.  This makes it a steal compared to other similarly-sized L.A. properties.  If you think this is for you, come see this at the open houses on March 14 and 15 from 1:00 to 4:00 each day.

Bragging on my agents

Yes, here comes more bragging on Judy Graff Properties' agents.  Gabriel Browne, top, just closed a duplex for his buyers in Long Beach.  But this wasn't just any escrow.  Gabriel had to deal with an AWOL listing agent, tenants that didn't know they had to leave, extension after extension, etc.  The problems just didn't stop, but he brought this transaction to a successful close for his sister buyers.  The sellers were so impressed with his work that they have decided to use him for their next purchase! Gabriel can be reached at soldbygabrielbrowne@gmail.com.

And Cameron Stephens killed it recently in San Marino.  He had been working with his buyers for a year and they finally found their dream home.  Cameron piloted the two week escrow and all-cash deal to a happy landing.  Check out Cameron's podcast at LAConversations.com or email him at cameronstephensRE@gmail.com.  Cameron is to be congratulated for another reason as well -- he is getting married next month to the lovely Lindsay.
