About This Home
As of June 2024Discover a slice of Hollywood's golden era with this stunning 1940s Spanish estate, perfectly positioned on a large & RARE 9000SF+ corner lot in the coveted Leimert Park. Enclosed by high walls and a gated entry, this property offers unparalleled privacy and security, with a very cool view of the iconic Hollywood sign from your front yard! As you enter onto the brand new stone paver driveway and through your Port-Cochere & motorized gate, you are welcomed into a serene courtyard surrounded by lush olive, magnolia, and fruit trees, leading up to an inviting front porch. The character of the home shines through the moment you step inside, with Dutch doors, Spanish tiles and vintage-style lighting preserved alongside original architectural features. Rich with authentic art deco touches such as scalloped archways, tray ceilings, and original 1940s corbel moldings, the home transports you to the glamorous days of old Hollywood. The spacious living room is bathed in natural light, highlighting the walnut engineered hardwood floors thru-out and featuring large windows, including a stunning bay window that frames a majestic olive tree. Authentic details and a classic fireplace create a warm ambiance for relaxation or entertaining. The dining area is chic with mid-century lighting and crown molding leading seamlessly into a sprawling kitchen equipped with a sun-drench breakfast bar. Marble countertops, beautiful cabinetry, and a suite of luxury Samsung appliances offer the perfect mixed of old world charm and modern updated amenities. The estate offers 4 spacious bedrooms and 3 designer bathrooms, including a primary suite with access to your sunny yard, walk-in closet and a earth-tone bath showcasing Zellige-style tiles, custom vanity with Carrera marble and chrome finishes. The 4th bedroom located off the kitchen, has its own entrance and bath and could offer additional flexibility for use as a guest suite or home office. Extensively upgraded in 2023/24 (with permits), this 2000SF + home has updated plumbing, 200amp electrical, brand NEW windows, doors, washer/dryer and HVAC system. A tankless water heater, irrigation system, and NEW cool roof, ready for solar installation, enhance its efficiency and sustainability. The expansive back and side yards offer ample space for outdoor dining and play or additional enhancements such as a pool or garage conversion with the potential for an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU). Situated in a neighborhood rich in history, Leimert Park's central location near freeways, Culver City, the beach and DTLA provides easy access to LAs enjoyment with top rated restaurants, artsy coffee shops + galleries, and chic boutiques. The area is celebrated for its vibrant community spirit, showcased by the Degnan Micro-Farm, Leimert Park's runner and garden clubs, and the friendly neighbors who enjoy strolling the blocks with their family and pets. If you are a fan of the outdoors, then enjoy mere moments from the beach, Culver City Stairs, Ballona Creek, or the numerous scenic trails at Kenneth Hahn Park + Park To Playa. With only a few moments to the water, Leimert Park is a westside suburb where you will enjoy picturesque sunsets and refreshing ocean breezes. While being at the junction of two major train lines (Expo + Crenshaw) and the upcoming 2026 World Cup and 2028 Olympics, this neighborhood is poised for continued growth. Offering more than just a home, it represents a valuable investment in one of South LA's most sought-after areas, providing an incredible opportunity to be part of a flourishing community.
