Property Description
This home has been compared to a treehouse or a birdhouse. It's connected to our local ecosystem but also perched above it on a hillside of native California greenery. It's clean, bright, quiet, and distinctive. A gorgeous deck and patio look out to the Hollywood Hills and beyond; meanwhile you are 3 minutes' walk from coffeeshops and groceries.
Modern appliances, hardwood floors, and double-paned windows make this a safe and comfortable base for enjoying the city. The solar system helps offset the electricity bill.
Leading out from the living room you'll find a big 14 x 22 foot deck; it's an extension of the house and the best place to have breakfast. On any given day you'll hear crows, hummingbirds, roosters, local musicians practicing, and the occasional LA helicopter. Below the deck is a patio and from there a set of stairs lead to a terraced yard - more space for you/you+friends.
Inside, the house catches the LA light so well there's seldom a reason to turn on lights during the day. The kitchen sink view is pointed toward the Hollywood sign and Century City.
When you head out on foot, you'll reach the two nearest coffeeshops almost immediately. Within 5 minutes walk: an organic grocer, a convenience store, hair salons, boutiques, and (in the uphill direction) Elysian Park, which provides miles of walking trails, picnic grounds, and playgrounds. Beyond the immediate surroundings, there's Echo Park (walkable) and Silver Lake (5-10 minute drive or bike.)
The home brings together so many of the things people love about living in Los Angeles - great views, outdoor living, an interesting neighborhood, and a little peace and quiet at the end of the day.
Be sure to view the Virtual Tour. Walk about, through and around to get a feel the property.
