1854 Phillips Way Los Angeles, CA 90042

Tucked away in a peaceful pocket of Highland Park, and situated on one of the neighborhood's most coveted streets, this beautifully reimagined 1920s Spanish bungalow offers verdant views, a lushly landscaped sprawling lot, multiple outdoor spaces, and an incredible separate casita with a kitchenette and bathroom. A front porch archway welcomes you into sun-filled living spaces, all impeccably designed by Patrick Maziarski, principal at Beau Geste Interior Design, that feature views to the Griffith Observatory and beyond. The charming living room, which boasts a wood-burning fireplace and large original windows, flows effortlessly into the spacious dining room and kitchen for easy living and entertaining. The kitchen is an absolute dream, with white oak cabinetry, Zia tile, Bertazzoni 6-burner range, and access to the dreamy outdoors. Just beyond the kitchen is a lovely powder room with Mutina Ceramics tile. Down the hallway are two perfectly appointed bedrooms, and a gorgeous bathroom with cedar paneled walls and vanity, Caesarstone countertops, and Fireclay tile. One of the two bedrooms features French doors that open to an expansive deck where you'll enjoy year round al fresco dining, weekend brunches, and tree-filled views. Wander down to the large, shaded patio, where you'll discover an array of massive agave, various cacti and native plantings. The lot continues a ways beyond the patio, and offers potential for expansion or space to create an edible garden. An incredibly chic detached casita, designed by Andrew Hall Architecture, feels like a treehouse and provides the perfect place for guests or a creative space. Previously owned by Marc Maron, the home's former garage space is where his well-known podcast, WTF with Marc Maron, was recorded for years, featuring conversations with countless artists, musicians, writers, directors, comedians, journalists, activists, and politicians, including Barack Obama, David Byrne, Gloria Steinem, Judd Apatow, Jason Bateman, James Taylor, Sarah Silverman, Kamasi Washington, Charlie Kaufman, Anthony Bourdain, Al Gore, Sarah Jessica Parker, Neil Young, Jane Lynch, Alice Cooper, Jennifer Coolidge, Eric Andre, Werner Herzog, Lesley Stahl, Greta Gerwig, and many more. This hilltop gem feels like a sanctuary in the city, while just a few short blocks to all of the shops and eateries on vibrant York Blvd - Town Pizza, Donut Friend, Belle's Bagels, Kumquat Coffee, El Huarache Azteca, Queen St, Cafe de Leche, Hermosillo, The York, Highland Cafe, Joy, Sticky Rice, and more.
