    Large, fully-renovated corner studio with full separate kitchen, breakfast nook, small "bonus" room, and multiple large closets. On the second (top) floor (walk-up), with nobody above you. The apartment includes a "bonus room" that is the exact size of a queen-size bed (please see photos) -- it can be used as a small bedroom, a home office, etc. Apartment has been completely renovated, with brand-new stainless steel appliances -- new fridge, new stove/oven, and new AC, new tile, new solid-wood cabinets and kitchen countertops, new windows, new blinds. Apartment is in a refurbished, classic 1920s building in East Hollywood/Melrose Hill. There are actually two nearly-identical units coming available -- a first-floor unit for $1500, and a second-floor unit for $1550. You are welcome to view both. There is a shared outdoor patio for all residents. Shared laundry is in the building. Street parking only. There is also excellent public transit (nearest metro stations are Santa Monica/Vermont and Wilshire/Western, plus lots of bus lines). This building is in a very walkable neighborhood ("walk score" is 94/100, among the highest in Los Angeles). Walking distance to the Lemon Grove park and recreation center, the Hollywood Forever outdoor film screenings, Paramount Pictures studios and Los Angeles City College. Located near banks (Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Credit Unions), grocery stores (L.A. Grocery & Cafe, Smart & Final, 82nd Market), and gyms. Easy walk to nearby restaurants and coffee shops, such as Cafe Telegrama, La Fonda Antioquena, Osteria La Buca, Organico, Sweet Corner Coffee and Cakes, Honey and Bacon Coffee House, Mesa Thai, Kuya Lord, Melrose Food Company, Umami Express, and Maison Matho Cafe, among many others. Rent is $1550/month. 12-month lease. At the end of the lease, it becomes month-to-month automatically. All appliances (fridge, stove/oven, AC, heater) are included with the rent. Owner pays water, sewage, and gas; you would pay for electricity and trash. This apartment welcomes pets (maximum 1 pet per apartment; $50/month pet fee). Security deposit is $800, pending good credit. Family-owned and operated building. This apartment is rent-controlled, which means that your rent can increase a maximum of about 3-5% per year.
