Own a piece of LA history with this verified, surviving Bunker Hill Victorian home!

The John Wesley Ellis Residence is the only verified surviving Bunker Hill home in LA.

Bunker hill, which originated in 1867, became famous for the upper-class residences of LA. The dominant architecture of the community was Queen Anne and Eastlake Victorians. Eventually, people moved away to places like Beverly Hills and Pasadena. By 1955, LA city planners decided that Bunker Hill required a massive slum clearance project. Most homes were demolished and replaced with skyscrapers. This home was moved to its new location to be saved from being destroyed.

The home has been entirely customized and restored by the current owner.

This Victorian home has 6 bed/4 bath, 3,276 sq. ft. of living space, and is on a 5,456 sq. ft. lot.

Asking price: $2,995,000
