Property Description
An historic opportunity to purchase one of Los Feliz's most distinguished and timeless estates: First time on the market since 1960, the estate has been restored and impeccably cared for with uncompromising integrity, awaiting its next generation of owners. The stunning romance of this home transports you to an era of elegance and glamor, with attention to modern comfort. Designed in 1926 by one of Southern California's most celebrated proponents of Spanish Colonial Revival architecture, Carleton Winslow Sr. (Bel-Air Country Club, Los Angeles Public Library, Santa Barbara Public Libraries, et al.) this residence celebrates a refined sense of light and lines, with exquisite attention to detail and orientation. Brought back to its original splendor, with a contemporary twist, it can be the perfect space for entertaining, for family of all ages, or as a retreat. Situated on an approximately half-acre hilltop lot, this residence affords a tangible sense of the magical, with mature flowering gardens, fruit trees, and multiple terraces and seating areas, indoors and out. It features a tree-shaded geometric garden and pathways, charming pergolas for al fresco dining, and views of downtown, the ocean, and the Griffith Observatory. Entering the double staircase with Plateresque facade, you enter a lofty grand two-story barreled-ceiling foyer with original tiled floors. Its provenance very much embodies the glamor of the space, having been graced with the likes of the legendary Orson Wells, prominent literary giants, directors, artists, musicians, philosophers, wine importers and rock-stars. An expansive domed-ceilinged living room invites guests with a gorgeous centerpiece mantle, flowering balconies, and French doors that lead to a covered archway patio and fountain. The main level also boasts an expansive formal dining room and a sumptuously wood-appointed library, both featuring original, hand-stenciled restored ceilings. An updated kitchen features marble counters, an oversized butler's pantry, THOR and Miele professional grade appliances, and an east-facing breakfast room with large bay windows that lead out to a large terrace overlooking the rear lawn, terraces and wild sage hill. The upstairs hosts four large bedrooms, each with en-suites and walk-in closets, including an expansive primary retreat with vaulted ceilings, fireplace, seating area, large dressing rooms, and explosive balcony views from downtown Los Angeles to the ocean. The impressive and inviting lower level of the home features multi-purpose spaces for a screening room, game, party space, or a home office/studio, with French doors opening to yet another outdoor terrace. The estate also includes a charming one bedroom, one bathroom attached cottage with a full bath and a fully remodeled kitchen. Additional features include an elevator with access from parking to kitchen and bedroom levels, garages for three cars, endless storage, a gated motor court for multiple additional vehicles, security cameras, new plumbing and electrical. A rare opportunity to be the next steward of this lovingly cared for estate.
