Total savings could amount to over $15,000 within the first two years with a standard 20% down payment loan. Don't miss this spacious and updated Mid-Century condo in the heart of Los Feliz! This is a truly unique offering - a top-floor, end-unit condo in a quiet 1950's building, which has been completely restored and updated top-to-bottom with all new systems and designer finishes. The Ambrose sits on a peaceful street, lined with mature palm trees, perfectly situated between Hillhurst and Vermont. Tucked away to create calm, privacy and a connection with nature, yet close to all of the amazing amenities that make this neighborhood special! Originally built in 1959, the complex has been lovingly kept by the close-knit association, and retains that sought-after Mid-Century charm. Within this intimate complex, #8 stands out as an extraordinary unit. Sited on the top level and at the back with only one shared wall, the condo feels both airy and private, perched up away from the street. A complete retrofit and redesign has just been completed, with no surface left untouched. Systems such as plumbing, electrical and drain lines have been replaced. Walls have been stripped to the studs and reinforced, with new high-rated insulation added. New flooring, drywall, paint and recessed lighting throughout give a comfortable and luxurious feel. A brand new, oversized kitchen is chef-ready with all new cabinetry, quartz counters, stainless appliances, custom lighting and ample storage. The kitchen opens to a dedicated dining room with huge windows and a sleek chandelier. The spacious living room has a flexible layout, space for a WFH setup, and sliding glass doors that open onto the private balcony with Observatory views. The center hall boasts ample storage, including space for an in-unit W/D combo. Off the hall, a full bath perfectly incorporates an original cast iron tub with new designer tile, vanity, lighting and fixtures. The large primary bedroom creates a perfect retreat with clerestory windows, walk-in closet, and a beautiful new en-suite bath with walk-in shower, frameless glass enclosure, and dramatic floor-to ceiling tile. Meanwhile, the second bedroom is perfect as a guest room, office or nursery, and also includes an oversized walk-in closet. Finally, the dedicated carport space also includes additional storage. Located mid-block on Ambrose Ave, the building's location gives an ideal blend of privacy and convenience. Close to Griffith Park, transit, freeways, as well as the countless cafes, shops and dining options in Los Feliz and the surrounding neighborhoods, the home is also convenient to studios and employment centers in nearby Hollywood. With a sensible floor plan, original charm, meticulous upgrades, and thoughtful finishes, this move-in ready condo strikes a perfect balance and sits ready for its next chapter! Please note - rate buy down numbers will vary by situation. Inquire for more details.
