Description
Tucked into the eclectic hills of Mt. Washington, this beautifully reimagined hillside gem is where art, design, and California living come together. Completely remodeled with an eye for detail and a creative spirit, this one-of-a-kind residence is anything but ordinary. Set on a rare triple lot spanning parcels totaling approximately 14,471 square feet, the property offers a combination of style, privacy, sweeping canyon views, and room to dream. With approximately 1,850 square feet of living space, three bedrooms and two-and-a-half bathrooms, this is a home for those who appreciate individuality, thoughtful design, and a little something unexpected. Bathed in natural light, the interiors feel effortlessly bright and inviting, with picturesque canyon and hillside views from nearly every room. An artful blend of textures, materials, and distinctive architectural details with tasteful modernism gives the home its own personality. The remodeled kitchen is a true centerpiece, featuring marble countertops, elegant brass hardware, brand-new Forno appliances, and stylish finishes that balance modern sophistication with warmth. Beautifully updated bathrooms with smart toilets and contemporary details continue the design-forward aesthetic, while new flooring throughout adds a fresh, cohesive feel. Designed with both everyday living and entertaining in mind, the home offers a formal living room, a dedicated dining room, and a variety of versatile spaces that make the floor plan as functional as it is inspiring. A dedicated office or creative space provides the perfect setting for working from home or making art. An additional flex space opens through expansive bifold glass doors onto the lower terrace, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection and an incredible setting for hosting friends & family. The expansive primary suite offers a peaceful retreat, complemented by generous proportions, beautiful natural light, and a spacious walk-in closet. Custom-designed closets throughout the home, thoughtfully integrated built-in cabinetry, and an abundance of additional storage provide exceptional functionality without compromising style. The other two bedrooms are equally wonderful, offering serenity and views. A dedicated laundry room with custom cabinetry and storage adds another layer of convenience. Beyond its striking interiors, the property has undergone extensive infrastructure upgrades, including a brand-new HVAC system, newer roofing, all-new electrical wiring & panel, a tankless water heater, USB and USB-C outlets, & Wi-Fi-enabled smart switches. The outdoor spaces are equally inspiring. Discover a private hillside sanctuary with newly refreshed landscaping, meandering walkways, mature trees, fruit trees, and lush greenery. A new deck, outdoor shower, and multiple areas for relaxing or entertaining. Whether it's morning coffee overlooking the canyon, afternoon gatherings on the terrace, or evenings under the stars, the setting feels like a peaceful escape from the city. Brand-new exterior siding, fresh paint, & updated concrete complete the property's impressive transformation. And then there's the land. Three lots offer a rare opportunity to create something truly special. Envision a detached art studio, additional living space, or expanded outdoor entertaining areas, or simply enjoy the luxury of your own expansive hillside retreat. Adding to its unique character, the property was once the final residence of renowned artist Ynez Johnston, lending a meaningful connection to Mt. Washington's rich artistic history. Today, that creative legacy continues through a completely transformed home filled with thoughtful design details and an unmistakable sense of individuality. Ideally located in the sought-after Mt. Washington Elementary School area, just minutes from Highland Park, Eagle Rock, & DTLA, you'll enjoy easy access to some of the city's best restaurants, coffee shops & boutiques.
