13908 Hamlin Street Valley Glen, CA 91401

This Valley Glen vintage charmer is too cute to tear down. Or is it? You be the judge. Built in 1941, when Art Deco had evolved to "Art Moderne" When you arrive, you will spot curved corners, a porthole window, rectangular glass, corner windows, and curved handrail. Finnish architect Eliel Saarinen popularized "Art Moderne" in the United States; some say this style of home looks boatlike. That irreplaceable 40's charm is on full display. The original floor plan included a living room, dining area, kitchen, two bedrooms, one bathroom, and a laundry room. At some point, an extra room was constructed at the rear of the house. Although not permitted, this additional space can serve as a home office, gym, playroom, or guest room. It is accessible through the back slider and one of the bedrooms. A two-car detached garage with a concrete pad directly behind it would make a pretty cool auto restoration mancave! The pale yellow kitchen tile was hand-laid with a raised counter beneath the corner windows, and is still amazing after 83 years. The cabinets are sturdy and detailed with glass display doors made with thick glossy glass, the kind they dont make anymore. The hardwood floor is authenically distressed, worn and beautiful. Windows are all around, with natural light pouring in from every angle.. The pink bathroom is vintage lovely with stained glass deatails, a large bathtub, and a separate walk-in shower. Decisions, decisions, keep life simple with a classic beauty mini makeover, or take it down and build a new custom home? Endless possibilities. The neighborhood will support e
