About This Home
As of October 2017Showcasing nearly an acre of lush, parklike grounds and sweeping Downtown views, this classic 1920s compound has been thoughtfully reimagined for modern living. A gated drive and grand motor court lined with oak trees, agave, and queen palms lead to gracious, light-filled interiors, including a living room with a Bachelder fireplace, library and formal dining room opening to expansive terraces. The master suite boasts incredible light and volume, while three guest rooms, one with an ensuite bathroom and private patio, are bright and serene. A charming, detached guesthouse features clean, contemporary interiors with a full kitchen and detached sauna. A phenomenal, tiered backyard studded with towering palms evokes the grandeur of Old Hollywood. From the home's expansive terraces to its abundant lawns, playground and exceptional swimming pool and spa, Live Oak offers an unrivaled living experience in one of L.A.'s most iconic neighborhoods.
