Property Description

A truly special 1920s Spanish residence in the heart of Miracle Mile, rich with architectural character and beautifully preserved charm. From the street, the home's curb appeal is immediate: a mature California pepper tree frames the property, while a curved, hedge-lined walkway leads through lush landscaping toward the arched entry and private front courtyard. Wrought-iron detailing and an oversized arched picture window give the home its distinctive Spanish character. Inside, the home is equally captivating. The dramatic living room is the centerpiece, with extraordinarily high ceilings, hardwood floors, a grand fireplace, and walls of windows bringing in abundant natural light and greenery. Above, a romantic Romeo-and-Juliet like-balcony overlooks the living room from the second story, an architectural detail that gives the space a remarkable sense of scale and character. An elegant formal dining room continues the home's warm, gracious feel. The generous eat-in kitchen features abundant cabinetry and counter seating, with a charming adjoining breakfast room (currently used as an office). French doors and windows throughout draw the outdoors in, creating an easy connection between the interior spaces and the surrounding gardens. The flexible floor plan offers two bedrooms and two bathrooms downstairs, with the fourth bedroom currently enjoyed as a warm and inviting den/informal living room. Upstairs are two additional bedrooms and one bathroom, creating a wonderfully versatile layout. Outdoors, the home is designed for quintessential California living, with a beautiful swimming pool and spa surrounded by mature greenery, stonework, and multiple areas for dining and lounging. The home's exceptional indoor-outdoor flow creates a private and inviting setting for enjoying the California sunshine year-round. Warm, romantic, and overflowing with character, this is a home that has retained the architectural integrity that makes a true 1920s Spanish so desirable, while offering the space and versatility for modern Los Angeles living. All in the heart of Miracle Mile, moments from LACMA, the Academy Museum, The Grove, and some of the city's best dining, shopping, and cultural destinations.
