Sited above the street and gated and hedged for privacy, this romantic 1922 Spanish has been lovingly restored and offers a warm blend of vintage detail and modern style. Located in the Whitley Heights HPOZ, the home is south facing and infused with natural light. The impressive living room features vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, a beautiful fireplace and original windows that afford pocket views of the Hollywood skyline. Original oak floors and vintage stenciled doors are a wonderful contrast to the modern wall sconces and lighting pendants throughout the home.
The home is perfect for entertaining, with a grand dining room anchored by a magnificent stained glass window. Beyond the dining room is a large dine-in chef’s kitchen with generous cabinet space, quartz countertops and newer stainless appliances. A laundry closet in the kitchen houses a washer/dryer stack.
Off a central hallway, the bright south-facing bedroom has a lovely arched window with views while the second bedroom opens onto a sunroom that makes for an ideal home office, with French doors opening to the outdoor patio.
Recent landscaping projects have created a lush, private oasis ideal for alfresco entertaining and dining. The large patio on the west side of the house with string lights overhead is a great spot for a BBQ and dining outdoors. In the front of the home is a tiered yard with flat grassy area and a separate outdoor lounge area of decomposed granite framed by citrus trees and agaves. With newer central heating and air, a one-car garage and convenient central location, Emmet Terrace is a special offering and a gracious reminder of vintage Hollywood architectural style.
