Description
Perched on the crest of the Highland Park hills with sweeping views of the DTLA skyline, this 4-bedroom, 3-bath updated home is a rare find. 1157 Toledo Street is a contemporary home set on a quiet cul-de-sac and offers exceptional backyard vistas of DTLA, canyon treetops, and twinkling city lights, wrapped in a warm, comfortable, and elevated interior. Enter through a gated front patio perfect for a Zen garden amongst drought-tolerant landscaping, which leads to a covered entry that opens to a bright living space. The home's interior boasts an open, circular floor plan that flows seamlessly through the main living areas. Centrally located on the first floor is a sizable modern kitchen - a chef's dream finished with clean, minimalist cabinetry and new appliances. The kitchen naturally flows to a formal dining room and a cozy, open breakfast nook that adjoins either side of the kitchen. The breakfast nook provides easy access to outdoor patio seating and also transitions to a large family room that is perfect for movie nights, a game room, or entertaining. The formal dining room flows into an adjoining living room featuring a decorative stone fireplace and a sliding glass door for seamless indoor-outdoor entertaining. A modern half-bath sits conveniently between the living areas. The second floor features the exceptionally spacious primary bedroom with room for a seating area, abundant light, breathtaking DTLA views, a generous walk-in closet, and plenty of storage. Its large ensuite bath offers a walk-in shower and dual sinks. The upstairs also has three additional bedrooms, one currently used as a home office that can equally serve as an exercise, reading or craft room, and a third full bathroom with walk-in shower completes the space. Outside, a wraparound patio offers multiple private spots for relaxing and entertaining with sweeping views and starry nights. Just beyond, a large, undeveloped, sloped backyard offers exciting potential for a terraced garden, infinity pool, deck, ADU and more. Rounding out the home's features is an attached two-car garage with a large overhead loft that offers additional storage and/or workshop space. Just minutes from many main attractions including Highland Park Bowl, Occidental College, Arlington Gardens, York Blvd and Figueroa Street, 1157 Toledo offers a comfortable, elevated Highland Park home in an unbeatable location.
