First time on the market in 65 years and perfectly sited on Bonvue Avenue, aptly named for "good view" in French - rumored to be named by San Francisco real estate developer James Lick in the 1850's; this two-story traditional home offers sweeping views of the L.A. Basin from Downtown L.A. to the Santa Monica Bay with epic Southern sky exposure of our Sun and Moon paths. This beauty is a stunning example of the 1960's austere design embracing form and function. A strong connection between the interior and outdoor living spaces are complimented with large windows showing off the clean geometric design while bringing natural stone and wood elements to blend the structure with the hillside landscape. A very comfortable and inviting experience for your day-to-day living to that lazy weekend lounging around your original kidney shaped Anthony Pool. Anthony Pool's an industry leader in California Pools since 1940. Enjoy some of the best views in Los Feliz on land that was part of the G.J. Griffith Estate which was held in that family since 1882 and prior to that a land grant from Governor Manuel Micheltorena in 1843. This is a generational legacy property awaiting its next steward.- THIS IS A TRUST SALE NO COURT CONFIRMATION.

Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1960 and on the market for the first time in 65 years, this property largely retains its original 1960s design and features. The kitchen is severely outdated with original light wood cabinets, tile countertops, and older appliances (except the refrigerator). Bathrooms also feature dated vanities, tile, and fixtures. While the property appears well-maintained for its age, major systems (electrical, plumbing, HVAC) are likely original or very old and would require significant investment to update. The presence of popcorn ceilings and wood paneling further indicates a lack of modern renovation. This property requires substantial repairs and rehabilitation to meet current quality standards and buyer expectations.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Great Schools: Elementary School: Ivanhoe Elementary School (9/10).
Exceptional Panoramic Views: Offers sweeping, unobstructed views of the L.A. Basin, Downtown L.A., Santa Monica Bay, city lights, hills, and ocean, significantly enhancing property value and lifestyle.
Historical & Legacy Property: A rare offering, on the market for the first time in 65 years, with deep historical roots tied to the G.J. Griffith Estate, presenting a unique generational investment opportunity.
Distinctive 1960s Architectural Design: Showcases a well-preserved 1960s austere design, characterized by clean geometric lines, large windows, natural materials, and a seamless indoor-outdoor connection.
Iconic Anthony Pool: Features an original kidney-shaped Anthony Pool, a notable amenity that adds character and recreational value to the outdoor living space.
Streamlined Trust Sale: Offered as a trust sale with no court confirmation, simplifying the purchasing process and potentially reducing transaction timelines.

Cons

Property Age & Potential System Updates: Built in 1960, the property may require significant investment in updating original systems (e.g., electrical, plumbing, HVAC) to meet current standards and buyer expectations.
Specific Aesthetic Appeal: The 'austere design' from the 1960s, while distinctive, may not appeal to all buyers seeking more contemporary or renovated aesthetics, potentially limiting the buyer pool.
Hillside Maintenance & Accessibility: Situated on a hillside, the property may present ongoing maintenance challenges related to landscaping, erosion control, and potentially limited accessibility for some.
