The charming 1910 home boasts a sage-green exterior and a
sustainably landscaped yard that supports the local ecologies of
butterflies and bees.

A renovated Craftsman that dates back to the early 1900s rests on a quiet corner lot
in northeast Los Angeles’s Highland Park neighborhood. Among its many alluring
features is the thriving, multifunctional garden that encompasses the two-bedroom
home.

After purchasing the residence in 2017, the current owners partnered with local
landscape architect Vanessa Espinoza to create a sustainably landscaped yard with a
climate-friendly irrigation system that sustains butterflies, birds, and bees in the
area. "The yard features a swale that was purposefully designed to function as a
natural, in-ground gutter," says one of the homeowners. "When rain races off the
roof, the water is then stored [in the swale] to nourish the more than 100 plants that
surround the home."

areas that are connected by an open floor plan. Restored heritage elements dot the
residence, including beamed ceilings, built-ins, and casement windows that shower

block countertops that span the back wall of the room. All-new stainless-steel
appliances complete the space.

         "The corner lot has amazing southern exposure, which floods the home with morning light
         and tends to our landscaped yard in the afternoon," says one of the homeowners.
