This 1963 home retains its architectural integrity with breeze-block details and a wood facade, while offering modern comforts like an upgraded kitchen and central HVAC.
Situated in the sought-after Adams Hill neighborhood within the John Muir Elementary boundary, the home is walking distance to popular local cafes and parks.
With a lot size of just 3,493 square feet and a primarily sloped yard, there is very little flat outdoor space for traditional recreation or gardening.
The hillside setting, while providing views, may present challenges regarding street parking for guests and potential high costs for any future foundation or exterior structural work.
Set on a quiet hillside in Adams Hill, this wonderfully spacious 1963 Mid-Century lifts you above it all, with panoramic views reaching Griffith Park and the Observatory. The mid-century character starts at the curb, with breeze-block detailing, warm wood facade, and drought-tolerant landscaping. The open layout impresses with generous scale and great indoor-outdoor flow; a statement brick fireplace anchors the living area, and sliding glass doors open to the upper wraparound deck for dining alfresco while enjoying stunning vistas. The upgraded kitchen is rendered in terra-cotta tones, with new cabinetry, and updated appliances. The dining area overlooks magnificent views, and whimsical wallpaper accents add warmth and personality throughout. Three bedrooms include an upper-level primary suite; a sunny den with a second fireplace adds flexibility for a home office, media room, or games room, opening to the lower deck above a low-maintenance sloped yard with succulents and lemon trees. Amenities include central AC/heat, many upgraded systems, attached two-car garage, and laundry. Well-situated within the coveted John Muir Elementary boundary, you are a stone's throw from many local favorites, including Kafn Coffee, Grand Kitchen, Adams Square Mini Park, Little Ripper, and Highland Cafe.
