At the top of the hill with sweeping canyon and Observatory views, this remarkable 1927 Spanish offers an exhilarating blend of vintage elegance and modern day convenience. Entering from the street one descends into a dramatic two story living room with soaring beamed ceilings. Period details abound: original hardwood floors, a beautifully tiled wood -burning fireplace, iron wall sconces, built-ins and a Juliet balcony.
Off the living room, the open plan kitchen and dining room are perfect for casual entertaining. The kitchen boasts Carrara marble countertops, custom cabinetry and a restored vintage Wedgwood stove. A convenient pantry and laundry room lie beyond. A guest bedroom with powder room and french doors opening to the outdoor terrace complete this level.
Downstairs, the large master bedroom is a lovely sanctuary, with stellar views and a sitting area with fireplace. The master bath is like a little hammam, all in marble and replete with steam shower. This level also has another guest bedroom and guest bathroom with clawfoot tub.
The lower level of the house was originally an outdoor loggia. It has since been enclosed and fully finished with beautiful arched stained glass windows and dark oak floors. It’s currently used as an office and media room, but with a full bathroom and generous closets it would also be utilized as a fourth bedroom.
Outdoors the sizable terrace is designed with entertaining in mind. A built in BBQ and those spectacular views will make for memorable alfresco dinner parties. Lovingly cared for by the current owners for the last 10 years, the home has seen extensive systems upgrades, including a retrofitted foundation and 3-zone HVAC.
