Property Description
Perched gracefully on a quiet canyon in coveted Mission Hills, this 1911 Craftsman masterpiece blends timeless architectural heritage with thoughtful modern upgrades, offering nearly 3,000 square feet of living space. Designed with extraordinary versatility, the home features 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and four additional bonus rooms ideal for a home office, children's den, craft studio, or additional bedrooms/bathrooms. Steeped in architectural legacy, this residence is intrinsically connected to one of California's most esteemed preservation architects, Milford Wayne Donaldson who served as the California State Historic Preservation Officer and was later appointed by President Barack Obama as Chairman of the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation. Once serving as the headquarters of his distinguished practice, the home reflects Donaldson's enduring vision of uniting historic craftsmanship with modern innovation. Inside, the entry level welcomes you into an elegant living room and a formal dining space that flows seamlessly into an additional family room and kitchen. The chef's kitchen is a true showpiece, appointed with Mont Blanc Quartzite countertops, rich hardwood floors, a Miele dishwasher, and a generous walk-in pantry. A charming powder room and direct access to the garage complete this level, balancing style with everyday convenience. ***
