The artist+builders of Re-Inhabit take their special blend of reclaimed design with sustainable elements to new heights in their latest offering, a 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home that has a fascinating story to tell. Tucked into the hills of Echo Park, the residence features an open floor plan, expansive outdoor space and shimmering city-lights views. The large Master Bedroom has its own large deck, while a second deck off the kitchen will be your private sanctuary or al fresco dining spot when entertaining. The rooms are generously proportioned, and a bonus attic space can be used as an office, playroom or den. This year-long remodel and restoration uses the majority of the original structure by repurposing materials in useful and ingenious ways. Wood siding from the former broken-down garage has become the tread of an interior stairway. Lath from demolished plaster walls has been put back into use. All of this has been done with the care and craftsmanship that Re-Inhabit is known for. A rare and understated showpiece, it is a home with beauty, grace and a compelling narrative all its own.
