About this home
Welcome to 2111 Pershing Street--where warmth, charm, and thoughtful updates come together in one of Watts-Hillandale's most beloved pockets. This beautifully restored Craftsman blends timeless architecture with refined, modern updates, creating a home that feels both classic and effortlessly livable. Set along a quiet, tree-lined street, it offers a rare balance of historic character and intentional renovation. From the moment you arrive, the home feels inviting and settled--rich with story, carefully cared for, and gracefully brought forward to meet the needs of today while honoring its enduring character.
Inside, the home strikes that rare balance of classic and comfortable. Hardwood floors, detailed trim work, and thoughtfully replaced windows about 10 years ago, and preserve its original charm, while a 2019 kitchen and sunroom renovation creates a bright, functional heart of the home. It's a space that lives easily--perfect for slow mornings, casual dinners, and everything in between. The cozy living room has an incredible wood-burning fireplace and stove ready to heat the house on those frosty winter mornings. Just beyond, a cozy patio adds another layer of comfort, making it easy to imagine evenings spent outdoors year-round.
The layout is both practical and inviting. Two generously sized bedrooms and a full bath on the main level offer flexibility and convenience. Upstairs, the primary suite feels like a true retreat--not an afterthought, but a comfortable and intentional space. With room for a bed, reading nook, or coffee corner, it's a place to recharge. The ensuite bath, complete with a skylight, is both efficient and serene.
The basement provides excellent, usable storage--clean, accessible, and ideal for everything from seasonal décor to outdoor gear and bulk shopping runs. It's the kind of space that quietly makes everyday life easier.
Outside, the setting is just as special. Nestled on a quiet, slow street in the heart of the neighborhood, the home is approached by a charming brick walkway leading to a welcoming front porch--perfect for morning coffee or an evening hello to neighbors passing by. The backyard is equally inviting, with a thoughtfully arranged mix of gathering space, gardening areas, and room to unwind.
And then there's the shed--a true 244 SF heated/cooled bonus space. Currently used as a workout and bike space, it offers endless potential: home office, studio, guest space, or creative retreat. It's a flexible, valuable extension of the home that adapts to your lifestyle. With this shed being heated & cooled, and the poly finished concrete floors, it feels like an extension of the house. And for a final touch of fun and relaxation, the backyard sauna conveys--an unexpected and delightful addition.
2111 Pershing Street is more than just a house--it's a home that feels good to be in. Full of character, thoughtfully updated, and effortlessly livable, it captures the very best of Watts-Hillandale living....
