Built in 1938, this single-family ranch house is located in The Oaks, a historic neighborhood in Los Angeles. Though the interior was recently reconfigured for a new family, the exterior is original to the home and is as cheerful as ever with a picket fence and blue shutters. 

With a picket fence covered in vines, this home has all the charm of a country cottage. A brick pathway leads visitors to the front door, where a traditional roof provides shade from the California sun. 

Just beneath the stairs, a renovated closet with plush pillows becomes the perfect place to read and relax. To the left, a small door leads to a playroom for the kids. 

Positioned above the marble-topped vanity, a gilded antique mirror adds depth and dimension to this transitional powder room. As a result, the space feels larger and more luxurious.
