More Insights

Built in 1928 (97 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1928, this property has been 'rebuilt from the studs with all-new systems, high-end finishes, and meticulous attention to detail.' This extensive renovation, which appears to be very recent based on the description and pristine condition shown in the images, qualifies it as virtually new. The kitchen features marble slab countertops, custom European oak cabinetry, a 60" Wolf range, and dual Miele dishwashers, all indicative of top-tier, modern quality. The primary bathroom boasts a spa-inspired design with a concrete soaking tub and high-end fixtures. All visible components, including flooring, light fixtures, and exterior elements like the zero-edge pool, are new or virtually new, meeting current quality standards with no deferred maintenance.

About this home

Perched in the hills of Los Feliz on a quiet cul-de-sac, Casa Vista is a reimagined 1928 Spanish Colonial that seamlessly fuses timeless architecture with sophisticated modern design and panoramic city views. A private compound situated behind solid gates - the home was rebuilt from the studs with all-new systems, high-end finishes, and meticulous attention to detail. Casa Vista exudes the romance of Old Hollywood with the ease of contemporary living. A formal entry opens to the main level, where a 13-foot ceiling living room with rebuilt fireplace and arched windows perfectly frame a view of downtown LA. The kitchen was completely redesigned during the renovation and features marble slab countertops with integrated sinks, custom European oak cabinetry, a 60" Wolf range, dual Miele dishwashers, a wine fridge, and a hidden coffee station. Upstairs, the primary suite captures sweeping skyline views and features a pitched ceiling, spa-inspired bath with a concrete soaking tub framed by an arched window, and generous custom closets. Additional bedrooms showcase Moroccan Zellij tilework, bespoke hardware, and thoughtfully designed finishes that pay homage to Hollywood's golden age of architecture. A central courtyard frames the residence with a newly rebuilt zero-edge pool and Baja shelf, surrounded by multiple terraces designed for lounging and dining. Outdoor amenities include a built-in BBQ, gas firepit, and lush landscaping with mature olive trees, Canary Island palms, and terracotta planters. The side garden features a tranquil fountain, while curated lighting and ficus hedging create privacy and ambiance throughout. Blending historic charm with modern elegance, this residence captures the very essence of California living. With its timeless architecture, private setting, and sweeping city-to-ocean vistas, this Los Feliz masterpiece offers a rare balance of architectural integrity and effortless sophistication - crafted for those who appreciate design, history, and the art of living beautifully.
