From the agent: "Being the only verified surviving Bunker Hill home in Los Angeles, this extraordinary, 100-percent turnkey stick-style Victorian rivals itself as one of the rarest properties in the entire city. This legacy home began as what would later become the Good Samaritan Hospital and has benefitted from almost 140 years of thoughtful ownership and preservation. Instead of being demolished for new developments, the home was painstakingly moved to two different locations during its storied history, and now sits comfortably in the Angelino Heights Historic Preservation Overlay Zone. Now, at the peak of its care, the property has been entirely customized and restored by the current owner/designer, with the intent to marry the memorable with the modern."

"Every inch of the original structure has been revived, including the wooden floors, decorative mantles, turn-of-the-century door hardware, pocket doors, stained glass, and original bay windows," says the listing agent.
