Greene and Greene On the Market

Considered to be the only Greene and Greene home still standing within the boundaries of Los Angeles, the Lucy E. Wheeler House is on the market. Designed in 1905, the charming Craftsman has 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths and— considering the previous owner was an architect specializing in restoration—you probably won’t have to put much “green” into it over the $775,000 asking price. Open this Sunday, 2–3 p.m., but call realtor David Rapsoa to confirm.
