D Sale of the Week:Hollywood Heights Charmer for Just $389,500


I will be surprised if this home is still available by the end of this week. Yummy Clifford D. Hutsell Spanish Eclectic on corner lot in the hot C-streets jam-packs the charm of Lakewood with generous square footage plus updates. Warning: Hollywood Heights/Santa Monica conservation district, no far-out paint colors. Spacious 2179 square feet, three bedrooms, two baths on 143 foot deep lot. Oh the interiors-eight foot tall stained glass windows, hutch doors, vintage ironwork and floor furnace grates; original hardwoods, formals, charming kitchen updated with Euro appliances and a farmhouse sink. The best is the mural of White Rock Lake in the living room said to have been painted by Texas muralist Dwight C. Homes. (Aren’t we glad a former homeowner wasn’t too zealous with the paint?) Scalloped ceilings, arched entrance, rose-garland moldings, Batchelder fireplace and oh yes: the columns on the back porch made from molds of the originals in Hutsell’s family home right there on Lakewood Blvd.
