More Insights

Built in 1960 (66 years old).
Condition: Built in 1960 and described as being in its original 1960s design, the property shows clear signs of age. The kitchen features original wood cabinetry, tiled countertops, and dated appliances, requiring a full renovation. While one bathroom appears somewhat updated, another retains a distinctly 1960s pink sink and tiled vanity, and a third has very dated wallpaper and fixtures. The home is functional and appears well-maintained, but major components like the kitchen and bathrooms are significantly outdated and would require substantial investment to modernize, aligning with the 'fair' condition criteria.

About this home

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.
