About This Home

As of April 2025

Serene, private West Hollywood bungalow. Concealed behind mature hedges and gates is this turn-key, two bed, two bath idyllic retreat. Spanish tiles and a rose garden lead guests past a charming, vine adorned patio, with a fountain, into the arched main entrance. A cozy stone fireplace is the focal point of the formal living room that is met with soaring, curved ceilings and oversized picture windows that invite in an abundance of natural sunlight. Dark wood trim around the dining room perimeter perfectly compliments the cabinetry and marble countertops in the chef's kitchen that is fully equipped with stainless steel appliances and a generous center island. Tucked away on its' own wing, the primary suite offers custom built-in's, French doors to the backyard, and a luxurious en-suite with dual sinks, a soaker tub and a stand alone shower. This sprawling lot, reminiscent of a tropical oasis, is an entertainer's dream. A sparkling pool, situated adjacent to the abundant grassy pad, nestles up to a fire pit and outdoor dining area for harmonious indoor-outdoor living. Blossoming floral and citrus trees further enhance this tranquil haven. Top of the line outdoor lighting illuminates the nightscape for evening enjoyment. French doors seamlessly convert the two car garage into a pool house. Experience trendy dining, shops, and entertainment just moments away on the iconic Melrose Ave.
