Description
The consummate Mount Washington home, this immaculate Ranch-style residence sits on an oversized promontory lot with nearly 180-degree views spanning Griffith Observatory, the Santa Monica Mountains, and, on clear days, the ocean. On the market for the first time in 35 years, the home has been thoughtfully curated by the owners, an interior designer and a contractor, featuring high-end finishes throughout. Hedged for privacy, the property welcomes you with a generous yard and relaxing porch with built-in seating. The elegant living room has warm wood floors, and walls of windows drawing in the light; the recessed dining room flows to the expansive patio, a magical setting for entertaining and enjoying the stunning vistas. The galley kitchen features updated appliances and polished travertine countertops; the adjoining laundry and pantry area provides copious storage. Two bedrooms look onto the beautifully landscaped grounds; the bathroom is lined in stylish penny tile and features a large Jacuzzi tub. Amenities include AC, a gated driveway and one-car garage. Well-situated within the Mount Washington Elementary boundary, you are moments from the Self-Realization Fellowship and close to all the coffee and dining in nearby Highland Park and Glassell Park.
