Property Description
Perched among the treetops in Franklin Hills, between Los Feliz and Silver Lake, this meticulously reimagined 1922 residence embodies the effortless romance of California hillside living, with sweeping views stretching from Griffith Observatory to the city skyline. Surrounded by mature trees and bathed in natural light, the home captures a magical setting for daily living and entertaining alike. Rich with personality yet remarkably serene, this turnkey charmer blends historic character with thoughtful modern design. The open-concept living spaces showcase a beautifully crafted custom kitchen, skylights, and curated designer finishes throughout. Just off the main living area are two generous secondary bedrooms with wood-beamed ceilings and oversized closets, complemented by a nature-inspired bath featuring deep green hues and striking jungle wallpaper. Beyond the kitchen, a thoughtfully designed mudroom and laundry room with a built-in desk nook add both function and charm.Privately situated, the vaulted primary suite serves as a tranquil retreat with wood-beamed ceilings, a spa-inspired bath with dual vanities, a large walk-in closet, and abundant natural light. French doors open to a private custom deck, while a path leads to a second viewing deck nestled beneath a mature tree and surrounded by native plantings, wildflowers, and fragrant lavender.Additional outdoor spaces invite entertaining, gardening, or quiet relaxation. Enjoy alfresco dining beneath a mature grapefruit tree overlooking the deck, while graceful olive trees line the yard and enhance the property's peaceful feel. A separate-entry bonus studio on the lower level offers flexible space for a home office, creative studio, gym, media room, or guest retreat. Rebuilt and expanded in 2025, the home features new electrical, plumbing, foundation, HVAC, roof, windows, wide-plank oak flooring, and 220V wiring ready for an electric vehicle charger.Rarely does a home so thoughtfully modernized retain such a strong sense of place. Peaceful and secluded, yet moments from the restaurants, cafes, boutiques, and cultural landmarks of Los Feliz and Silver Lake, this is a rare opportunity to own a fully reimagined retreat in one of Los Angeles' most desirable neighborhoods.
