Description
A soulful, thoughtfully reimagined single-story bungalow where preserved early-century character meets a refined modern sensibility 5124 Hillcrest is a fully permitted, down-to-the-studs designer renovation in View Park-Windsor Hills. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home preserves its original octagonal stained-glass windows and brick fireplace while delivering a European-design kitchen, two designer spa baths, a primary walk-in closet, all-new electrical, copper plumbing, HVAC, and roof, plus a detached two-car finished garage with ADU optionality on a 7,000 sqft lot. Designer-curated landscaping and manicured curb appeal lead to a new oak wood entry door. Inside, the foyer opens to a sun-drenched living room anchored by the preserved brick fireplace, painted shiplap accent, and original octagonal stained-glass accent windows a rare character moment in an otherwise fully reimagined home. Light wide-plank waterproof flooring flows seamlessly into an open-concept kitchen and dining heart-of-the-home. The European-design kitchen pairs natural oak flat-front cabinetry with a waterfall-edge quartz island, matching backsplash, floating curved-glass stainless range hood, gas range, French-door stainless refrigerator, and a farmhouse apron-front sink opening to a generous dining area and out through sliding doors to the covered back porch. The 14'8" x 15'1" primary suite features three windows of natural light, a 7'9" walk-in closet with custom modular built-ins, and an en-suite spa bath with double walnut vanity, quartz counters, backlit LED touch mirror, frameless glass shower, rainfall and handheld fixtures, and marble-look porcelain top-to-bottom. Two additional bedrooms share a designer hall bath with matching walnut vanity, illuminated LED mirror, and porcelain tile. Behind the finishes: a new 200-amp electrical panel and wiring, copper plumbing, new 4-ton heat pump HVAC, transferable GAF roof warranty, new water heater, new gutters, and approximately 1,800 sqft of new pavers spanning the front walkway, driveway, and back patio. The detached two-car finished garage features new concrete and painted-out walls ideal as a workshop, creative studio, fitness sanctuary, or future ADU conversion. All work fully permitted. Set on one of View Park-Windsor Hills' most coveted streets, where the architectural prestige and storied legacy of one of LA's most beloved enclaves meets the rising creative energy of Park Mesa Heights at your doorstep. Stroll to Hilltop Coffee + Kitchen, dine at the celebrated Jon & Vinny's, or pick up a smoothie at the institutional Simply Wholesome. Effortless access to the 110, 90, 405, and 10 freeways places LAX, Silicon Beach, Culver City, Inglewood, Leimert Park, Baldwin Hills, and West Adams all within easy reach.
