Back in 2016, when Los Angeles architect Stuart Magruder bought a new family home for himself and his wife — plus their two energetic kids and a duo of dogs — this bungalow in the up-and-coming Hyde Park area probably seemed like a bizarre choice. The tiny, 1940s-era structure was single story, with just two bedrooms and one bathroom, and had fallen victim to a less-than-stellar ’70s remodel.

Up there are three all-new bedrooms and two baths, for a combined home total of four bedrooms and three baths (one of the downstairs bedrooms was converted into a den).
