Property Description
Perched atop the rolling hills of Mount Washington, this soulful sanctuary is a love letter to the artistic spirit of Los Angeles. Set on a sprawling, 20,000-square-foot lot, the home feels like a private escape where the earth meets the sky. It is a place designed for the dreamer, the creator, and the seeker of quiet magic. Inside, walls of glass dissolve the boundaries between the airy interiors and the vast, sun-drenched landscape. The living room, anchored by a crackling fireplace and soaring ceilings, flows effortlessly onto expansive decks that invite the outside in. Whether you're hosting starlit gatherings on the main patio or retreating to the petite meditation deck to read under the canopy of ancient branches, the energy here is pure peace. The grounds are a true living tapestry, a private orchard heavy with avocado, guava, apricot, plum, coffee bush, and pink grapefruit, alongside dedicated garden beds waiting for your seasonal harvest. For those needing a creative workspace or a separate retreat, the downstairs bonus space offers a spacious den, a 3rd bedroom complete with its own bathroom, and a versatile office area. Life here is deeply connected to the vibrant pulse of the mountain. You are moments from sunrise hikes and the beloved local tradition of the neighborhood dog walk, all while being within the coveted Mount Washington Elementary boundary. When the city calls, the eclectic energy of the Figueroa corridor, the culture of the Music Center, and the proximity to DTLA and Pasadena ensure you're never far from the action. Come home to a space that breathes with you, a terraced haven for lounging, stargazing, and living beautifully.
