About this home

Situated on a larger-than-average lot, this three-bedroom, two-bathroom Downey residence pairs timeless character with exciting possibilities for its next chapter. Standout features not commonly found in the area include a spacious primary bedroom with a private bathroom and walk-in closet, along with a double-wide driveway offering additional parking convenience. Newer dual-pane casement windows facing the street provide improved efficiency, comfort, and curb appeal. Inside, the home's original hardwood floors have been professionally sanded and are ready to be finished in the new owner's choice of stain and sheen, preserving an authentic feature while allowing for a personalized final touch. The functional floor plan offers comfortable spaces for everyday living and entertaining, while the generous lot provides room to enjoy the outdoors, garden, host family and friends, or explore future enhancements, subject to applicable requirements. Downtown Downey offers an inviting collection of restaurants, shops, and community events, while the Promenade at Downey and Stonewood Center provide additional dining, entertainment, and everyday conveniences. Nearby parks, recreational opportunities, and the Columbia Memorial Space Center add even more to the community experience, with convenient access to major commuter routes. Offering character worth preserving, space with room to grow, and several hard-to-find features, 8243 Lankin Street is more than a home, it is a canvas for what comes next.
