Description
A new chapter awaits at this secluded Silver Lake legacy property, on the market for the first time in over 70 years. Designed by architect Laurence B. Clapp in 1936, this character-filled Monterey Colonial in the heart of the Moreno Highlands offers timeless architecture, generous living spaces, and endless views of the Hollywood Hills and Griffith Observatory, all in a distinct and memorable setting. Situated above the street with additional PRIVATE REAR ACCESS, the home unfolds across multiple levels with a gracious floor plan, abundant natural light, and a wonderful connection to the outdoors. The main and upper levels span approximately 2,509 square feet, beginning with a spacious living room framed by an oversized picture window with treetop and hillside views. Just beyond, the dining area flows into an updated kitchen, while a nearby office/den opens onto a large sunroom with vaulted ceilings overlooking a private patio, creating a beautiful transition between the interiors and gardens. Upstairs are three bedrooms, including an en-suite primary with a walk-in closet, and two additional bedrooms sharing a hall bathroom. An additional approximately 676-square-foot lower level adds even more flexibility with a large family room, guest bedroom, and bathroom. Outside, a second patio and terraced gardens offer multiple areas for dining, entertaining, gardening, and relaxing. A rare amenity can be found at the rear of the property, with a private drive and parking area offering convenient access to the home. A two-car garage at the front provides additional parking and storage. This home is ideally situated in the heart of Silver Lake, within walking distance of Ivanhoe Elementary School and just moments from Sunset Junction, the Silver Lake Reservoir, Griffith Park, and the many shops and restaurants that make this neighborhood so special. A generational opportunity that is not to be missed.
