PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Great Schools
Elementary School: Warner Avenue Elementary School (9/10).
- Architectural Pedigree
As a rare USC Case Study project home by Chapman and McCorkell, this midcentury post-and-beam residence offers significant historical value and a sensitive, high-end restoration that appeals to design enthusiasts.
- Modern Infrastructure & Safety
The property is exceptionally well-updated with a whole-home solar system, EV charging, and a rare IBHS Wildfire Certification, providing significant sustainability and insurance advantages in a hillside setting.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Limited Traditional Yard Space
The hillside lot is optimized for decking and a lap pool, which leaves little to no flat, grassy yard space for traditional outdoor play or gardening.
- Secondary School Commute
While the elementary school options are highly rated, the top-tier high school options are located several miles away, which may be a logistical concern for families with older children.
About 11534 Laurelcrest Drive
Set on a quiet cul-de-sac in the Studio City hills, this 1961 midcentury post-and-beam residence with jetliner views, is one of only five homes built for a USC Case Study project by Chapman and McCorkell, blending architectural significance with a sensitive, modern restoration. Inside, beautifully preserved maple hardwood floors, original lighting fixtures, a striking two-sided fireplace, and dramatic two-story picture windows flood the home with natural light, seamlessly blending classic midcentury character with contemporary comfort. The fully renovated, open-concept kitchen pairs fireclay tile and Bosch appliances with a striking waterfall island and abundant storage, opening gracefully to the dining and living spaces. The main floor is further enhanced by a bonus office, a thoughtfully designed pantry/mudroom, and exceptional storage. Upstairs, three generously sized bedrooms are awash in sunlight with panoramic views, including a serene primary suite with an enormous custom closet and direct access to an expansive deck with 180 degree views of the San Fernando Valley.
