Welcome to 3520 Somerset Drive, Your Private Retreat in the Heart of West Adams! Nestled in one of LA's most sought-after neighborhoods, this corner-lot sanctuary is filled with natural light, timeless period details, and thoughtful modern updates. Behind a fully gated perimeter and surrounded by mature trees, this home feels like a tranquil escape from the city. Step into the living room, where elegant barrel ceilings and an oversized picture window create an airy, inviting space. Vintage hardwood floors run seamlessly throughout, adding warmth and character. The updated kitchen includes a sunny breakfast nook, perfect for slow mornings with coffee, while the formal dining room is ideal for hosting gatherings. The primary bedroom features a unique arched office nook, perfect for working from home with style and ease. Out back, discover your own private haven: a generous yard with a raised deck, zero-maintenance turf, multiple lounge areas, a garden box, and an outdoor dining setup. Extra-tall privacy fencing and layers of lush, flowering trees create a serene and secluded outdoor living experience. With its expansive layout and LAR2 zoning, the large backyard offers incredible potential for expansion, an ADU, or additional living space. Located in the vibrant West Adams community, you're just minutes from local favorites like Highly Likely, Alta, Mizlala, Damn I Miss Paris, Chulita, Vicky's All Day, Cento Pasta Bar, and Tartine, plus neighborhood gems like The Gathering Spot Social Club, Common Ground Pilates, and Hills & Heights Pilates. With easy access to the EXPO and Crenshaw/LAX lines, this home offers the best of peaceful living and urban convenience.
