| Resource Description: |
Built in 1921, the bungalow court (known as Los Arcos Court) is sited on an interior lot on the south side of East Orange Grove Boulevard between North Catalina Avenue and North Wilson Avenue. The court consists of seven bungalows configured in a U shape around a central landscaped courtyard. The rear bungalow contains two studio units (converted to a duplex in 1947). The remainder of the south side of the block contains large houses from the early 1900’s, most of which have been converted into apartment buildings. To the immediate north is the Bungalow Heaven Landmark District. In addition to the residence, the property has a detached one-car garage and storage building which was built at a later time and is not consistent with the architectural style of the bungalow court. This accessory building may have been demolished to accommodate bedroom additions on the rear unit.
The 936-square-foot bungalows exhibit Mission style features including smooth stucco walls, parapetted roofs stepped at each corner with terracotta barrel-tile coping, groupings (in twos and fours) of wood casement windows, wood front doors with multiple lights and arched entry porches.
