From the moment you enter this mid-century post-and-beam home, designed by noted architect Jack Chernoff AIA, you will be struck by dynamic lines and expansive views. Commissioned c. 1956, this sensitively designed, light-filled, split-level home showcases 180-degree western views from the Wilshire skyline to Griffith Park and the Hollywood Sign. The intimate den with custom inlaid wood floor leads to a private patio surrounded by bamboo: the perfect place for morning coffee. Step down into the dramatic vaulted ceiling living room, and enjoy the two-story brick fireplace with open hearths. This home features three generous decks for relaxing outdoors. The deck off the dining room and kitchen has a built-in BBQ and bar top for entertaining and enjoying unforgettable sunsets year-round. The open kitchen features quartz counters and restored original St. Charles cabinets. The aquamarine mosaic-tiled main level bathroom creates a spa escape by combining an expansive picture window to the private patio, vaulted wood-paneled ceiling, skylight, and sunken tub. Downstairs are two bedrooms with floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors, accompanied by a second full bathroom. The large utility and laundry room, with surrounding windows, is perfect for an art studio. Located in the hills of Silver Lake on a quiet street, with parking for up to four cars. Street-to-street lot with mature trees and landscaping. A short tour to some of the best local spots: LAMill Coffee, Alimento, Botanica, L&E Oyster Bar, the dog park, reservoir, and meadow.
