About This Home

As of January 2021

Enchanting, beautifully updated historic home in sought after Melrose Hill HPOZ. Recognizable as Rebekah and Kate's house from the tv show "This is Us", the property comes with two lucrative optional filming contracts in place as well as Mills Act status that offers significant savings in property taxes. Set behind a white picket fence and lush landscaping, LA living has never been more delightful. The charming front porch welcomes you into light-filled, soulful living spaces that offer a seamless flow for easy living and entertaining. Dappled in light and centered around an incredible brick fireplace, the spacious living room is the heart of the home. The adjoining formal dining room opens to an impeccably renovated kitchen with marble floors and custom cabinets. Three generously sized bedrooms plus a separate den/office with French doors that open to the magical outdoors, filled with verdant, mature landscaping. 2 updated bathrooms with high-end wallpaper. A true gem.
