About This Home
Perched in the hills just moments from the Silver Lake Reservoir, this traditional hillside home offers a rare sense of privacy, surrounded by mature trees and sweeping views of the Silver Lake hills. Filled with natural light, the 1,440 square-foot, two-bedroom, two-bath residence unfolds with an effortless connection between indoor gathering spaces and two expansive decks, creating a peaceful, treehouse-like retreat in the heart of the neighborhood. The expansive living room is anchored by a dramatic wall of glass, where two oversized sliding doors open seamlessly to the main deck, blurring the line between indoors and out. Original hardwood floors add warmth and character throughout the home, while the adjacent dining area flows naturally into a spacious kitchen featuring generous storage, a large cooking peninsula and a charming original 1950s indoor grill, a distinctive nod to the home's mid-century roots. Downstairs, two comfortable bedrooms provide quiet retreats, including a primary bedroom with direct access to its own private deck overlooking the surrounding hillsides. The attached garage offers easy entry, laundry and additional storage, while dual-zone HVAC provides year-round comfort. Ideally positioned just moments from the Silver Lake Reservoir, LA Mill Coffee, L&E Oyster Bar, Botanica, the Meadow and Sunset Junction, this home pairs the energy and convenience of Silver Lake with the privacy of a quiet hillside retreat.
