About This Home

As of August 2017

This charming 2 bedroom 1 bath Hollywood oasis sits on a beautiful newly landscaped lot that overlooks the city. Centrally located in the Hollywood Hills, this ecletic house has been home to many artist and creative people, providing them with inspiring views and seclusion. The owners have worked to maintain its originality and charm by refinishing the hardwood floors and custom interior paint. Adding to its quaintness are the original fireplace, that was built in 1925, and its French doors that open up to the deck. This home boasts a lot of natural light and exudes tranquility. Below the deck there is a detached studio that has been used by previous owners to create music and art, but it can also be used as a home office. The deck has been entirely redone to entertain guests and host dinners at sunset.
