More Insights

Built in 1922 (104 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1922, is described as a 'fully renovated duplex.' The upper unit clearly meets 'Excellent' criteria with new flooring, paint, HVAC, select windows, and a completely remodeled kitchen featuring new stainless-steel appliances and modern finishes. However, the lower studio unit, while clean and move-in ready with new-looking carpet, shows older white appliances and less updated cabinetry/countertops in its kitchen. This disparity prevents the entire duplex from achieving an 'Excellent' rating, as not all components are new or virtually new. Overall, the property is in good condition, move-in ready, and well-maintained, but the lower unit's kitchen shows signs of being outdated compared to the upper unit's recent renovation.

About this home

Located in the renowned "Hollywood Heights district", this fully renovated duplex is set along a historic walk street just moments from the Hollywood Bowl. The area is known for its distinctive character, artistic community, and rare sense of privacy tucked away from the city. Surrounded by bamboo groves, succulents, and mature trees, the property is a very peaceful, retreat-like environment defined by pedestrian pathways and natural landscaping. The upper unit is a 2BR/1BA with LOTS of natural light and gorgeous views! This unit features an open-concept living area with a wood-burning fireplace, new flooring and paint, a new HVAC system, select new windows, and a completely remodeled kitchen with new stainless-steel appliances. The layout for this unit is ideal for entertaining, with seamless indoor-outdoor flow to the patio/deck. This unit is PERFECT for owner/users! The lower unit (6847) is a studio with one bathroom and is currently tenant occupied. The rich history of the Alta Loma Terrace community includes former residents such as Kurt Cobain of "Nirvana" and his then wife Courtney Love of "Hole", actress Bette Davis, and pioneering Asian-American actor Philip Ahn. The neighborhood is shared with the High Tower area and home to the Otto Bollman House by Lloyd Wright and the historic "High Tower Elevator", which was originally constructed in the early 1920s to provide private access for certain residents of Alta Loma Terrace and the High Tower areas. Hollywood Heights has a "voluntary" Community Association available to owners and tenants (buyers to inquire for more information). Hurry, this gem won't last!
