Description
Welcome to 1964 Palmerston Place, a truly rare Los Feliz offering where timeless architecture, rich history, and modern infrastructure come together in one extraordinary residence. Originally designed and occupied by its architect owner, this distinguished property was thoughtfully created as both a residence and professional workspace. The architect lived upstairs while operating his office from the lower level, establishing a live-work concept decades ahead of its time. Throughout its history, the home has had only three owners, a remarkable testament to its enduring appeal. The second owner was a skilled plumber, whose stewardship contributed to the home's well-maintained systems and long-term care. The property has been thoughtfully removed from the rental market and thoughtfully redesigned for single-family use. The upper level has been reimagined into a luxurious 3-bedroom, 2-bath residence by incorporating the former studio, while the lower level offers a comfortable 2-bedroom, 1-bath layout—ideal for multi-generational living, extended family, guests, or a dedicated home office, echoing the property's original purpose. Behind its classic Old World character lies an extensive modernization of nearly every major system. Recent improvements include all-new electrical panels, updated copper plumbing, new central heating and air conditioning, and a completed foundation retrofit, providing today's buyers with confidence and peace of mind while preserving the home's architectural integrity. Situated on a picturesque street in one of Los Feliz's most desirable neighborhoods, this exceptional residence offers approximately 3,626 square feet of versatile living space that seamlessly blends historic significance with contemporary comfort. Opportunities to own a home with this level of provenance, thoughtful restoration, and flexibility are exceptionally rare. Note: this property has had tenants removed through the Ellis Act and is being sold as for single family use. Possible ADU build in very rear of backyard - check with city for usage / allowances - rear also has a three-car garage to store/park all your toys A legacy property with an extraordinary story—ready for its next chapter.
