Remarks

First time on the market! Welcome to one of the most interesting and unusual properties in Whittier! The 'Jenkins Adobe' was built in the late 1950s by an aerospace engineer and his family over almost 10 years, and has stood the test of time! It is a large property with two homes. They first built the smaller, one bedroom cottage in the back (850 square feet) to live in while they built the larger 3 bedroom, 2 bath home (2303 square feet) in the front. The adobe homes sit on a huge lot of 17,804 square feet with lots of trees and possibilities! The walls are 16 inches thick! It has many exterior upgrades, including: new heating and air; A new roof; new copper plumbing; a new laundry room; and a new patio for the back unit. Much of the electrical has also been upgraded. The interiors are virtually ORIGINAL, wating for your creative touches! The property includes two addresses (13607); and two separate electrical meters. It is a perfect multi-family estate or a great setup to have a rental to help with the mortgage! You need to stop by and check out this amazing historically significant property!
