Description
Prime lower Nichols location that gives the canyon feel yet is just moments to everything on the Sunset Strip. Set behind gates and a large motor court, this stunning home offers pool, spa, cabana with bath & sauna, extensive gardens and hilltop decks with city views. The traditional architecture with dramatic cross-trussed beams, two wood-burning fireplaces and brick finishes is contrasted with striking walls of Fleetwood glass doors that retract to reveal the hillside gardens. The chef's kitchen, dining room and den are all open to each other and flow out to the patios through those large open doors. The spacious master suite has soaring wood beam ceilings, separate dressing area/office and a spa-like bath. The two guest rooms at the other side of the house share a large bath with double vanities, jacuzzi tub and separate shower. This property offers so much in this truly special setting.
