Timeless Spanish character meets thoughtful modern updates at 3778 May Street, a beautifully maintained 1927 Spanish-style bungalow located on a charming residential street in the heart of Mar Vista. From the moment you arrive, the home makes an impression with its classic Spanish architecture, mature landscaping, terra-cotta details and inviting curb appeal. Inside, approximately 1,032 square feet of living space offers a warm and comfortable floor plan featuring two bedrooms and one beautifully updated bathroom, while preserving many of the architectural details that give homes of this era their distinctive character. The light-filled living room serves as the heart of the home, highlighted by high ceilings, original hardwood floors, graceful arched windows and openings, period wall sconces and a striking wood-burning fireplace with decorative Spanish and Malibu tile detailing. The combination of original craftsmanship and carefully selected improvements creates a space that feels authentic, sophisticated and comfortable. The updated kitchen blends seamlessly with the home's vintage character while providing the conveniences of modern living. Features include quartz countertops, upgraded cabinetry, stainless-steel appliances, decorative tilework and a large garden window that brings abundant natural light into the space. An adjacent dining area with built-in seating provides an inviting setting for both everyday meals and entertaining. Both bedrooms are generously proportioned with ample closet space and convenient access to the outdoors. French doors connect the primary bedroom to the rear yard, creating an effortless indoor-outdoor flow and allowing natural light and coastal breezes to move through the home. Outside, the property truly comes to life. The approximately 5,399-square-foot lot provides a private and lush backyard setting with a spacious rear deck ideal for outdoor dining, entertaining or simply relaxing in the Southern California sunshine. Mature landscaping creates a peaceful retreat and a wonderful extension of the home's living space. A detached one-car garage adds valuable flexibility and offers potential for use as traditional parking and storage, a home office, creative studio, gym or other bonus space. The property's generous lot may also offer opportunities for future expansion or an ADU, subject to applicable city requirements and buyer verification. Additional improvements include an updated kitchen and bathroom, a newer roof and foundation retrofit, while original hardwood flooring, arched architectural details and carefully preserved period finishes maintain the home's authentic 1920s character. Ideally positioned in Mar Vista, the home offers convenient access to the restaurants, shops and neighborhood amenities of Mar Vista and nearby Venice, with easy connections to the Westside and the coast. Within easy walking distance of Bluey's, Beethoven Market, Electric Bleu and more, the location combines the feel of an established residential neighborhood with convenient access to everything that makes Westside living so desirable. 3778 May Street is a rare opportunity to own a classic Los Angeles Spanish bungalow that offers move-in ready architectural character, modern comfort, exceptional outdoor space and tons of future potential all in one of the Westside's most sought-after neighborhoods.
