Description
Behind a low stucco courtyard wall on one of West Adams' most inviting blocks, 3044 Hillcrest Drive pairs classic Spanish Revival character with a top-to-bottom renewal. Clay tile rooflines, softly scalloped parapets and oversized black-framed arched windows set the tone from the street. A fresh lawn and sculptural cactus garden frame the front patio, a sunny perch for morning coffee and evening hellos with the neighbors.Inside, the architecture leads. A barrel-vaulted ceiling crowns the living room, where an arched picture window floods the space with light. A hand-plastered kiva-style fireplace sits on a warm terracotta hearth. Broad, sculpted archways flow into the dining room and kitchen, keeping the plan open and connected without losing the home's soul. Light wide-plank flooring runs throughout, and new windows frame palm-lined views in every room.The kitchen is made for gathering. It has warm white oak cabinetry, veined stone countertops and a long peninsula with seating for three. Glazed Zellige-style tile, a plastered range hood and brushed brass fixtures finish the room, and a Thor stainless appliance suite handles the cooking. Just beyond, a sunlit breakfast nook in the bay, with its own arched window and woven rattan pendant, may become the favorite seat in the house.Three bedrooms and two baths complete the home. The primary suite has a private en suite bath and French doors that open directly onto a brand-new deck, ready for al fresco dinners and slow weekend mornings. Perfect for a new family with a third bedroom as an office or nursery. The fully renewed yard offers room to garden, play and entertain, and a new driveway leads to the detached garage.The real value is behind the walls: new plumbing, new electrical and new windows throughout, plus fresh exterior paint, a new driveway, new landscaping and a new deck. The hard work is done, so the next owner can simply move in and enjoy.Steps away from Jefferson Boulevard favorites like Highly Likely and Maydan market with quick access to the Expo Line for Culver City, Santa Monica and Downtown, and easy on-ramps to the 10. Weekends bring hikes at Kenneth Hahn and rides along the Park to Playa Trail. Welcome to Hillcrest.
