About This Home
As of September 2024Welcome to your very own Craftsman treehouse with a secret garden; tucked behind a fence and set amongst the native greenery. With sweeping views of Downtown Los Angeles, this secluded sanctuary has been given new life. Through the gate are lush olive, meyer lemon and orange trees meandering down the side of the property. Through the front door is the main living space with original oak flooring and a restored decorative fireplace. Wood windows frame greenery from every room and allow the abundant light to fill the entire interior. The magnitude of the views are on full display in the dining room where the city serves as a sparkling backdrop for your dinner parties. In the kitchen, handmade artisan tile and integrated appliances give a modern feel, while the carefully preserved built-ins honor the integrity of the space. The sleek full bathroom with nickel gap wainscoting serves both bedrooms while the primary provides a walk-in closet, rarely seen in homes of this era. The lower level bonus space is ideal for a music studio or creative office. It has its own entrance and ensuite bathroom, large storage closet and stackable laundry tucked neatly into the corner. The wrap around yard space offers a sunset deck with epic view, cozy conversation corner tucked into the greenery and a dining area with room for all your friends. The carefully cut holes in the fence preserve a beloved Japanese black pine tree. With all new systems including HVAC, roof, electrical and plumbing, this enchanted property is a magical oasis.
