About 1757 Wellesley Avenue
Classic original 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home on a 5,801 SF lot in the desirable West LA/Sawtelle pocket. Offering 1,009 SF of living space, this property presents an incredible opportunity for both developers and end users to renovate, expand, or rebuild in one of West LA's most sought-after neighborhoods. The home is currently without a washer and dryer and does not have existing washer/dryer hookups. The detached garage with alley access provides an excellent opportunity for an ADU (buyer to verify), and the lot offers ample flexibility to reimagine the existing footprint or create an entirely new vision. An additional detached structure currently used as a bonus room adds further potential. Perfectly located just moments from the vibrant shops and restaurants of Sawtelle Japantown, West Edge, and the Expo/Bundy Metro line, with quick access to Santa Monica, UCLA/Westwood, Century City, and the 10 & 405 freeways. A rare development or renovation canvas in a high-demand neighborhood with strong surrounding values and long-term upside.
