2235 Catalina

Circa 1931. An estate that defines an era. Stately Mediterranean Revival architecture recalls Classical Hollywood cinema and speaks to the visual style of Hollywood's Golden Age. At a time when the Empire State Building first opened its doors, Los Feliz was the thriving center of life in Los Angeles. Set behind gates and on the market for the first time in a half-century, this residence offers a glimpse of the magic of that bygone time. Charming character and original period details are found throughout. The dramatic grand foyer with a sweeping staircase welcomes visitors. The heart of the house is the living room, which features a wood beam ceiling and is anchored by an oversized fireplace. It flows to the family room and the glamorous swimming pool below. The dining room floods with natural light and opens to the newly redone kitchen with SubZero and Wolf appliances. Semi circular breakfast room in the style of A. F. Leicht is the perfect place to gather. Stunning primary suite with city views, hotel-like primary bathroom, and oversized walk-in closet. Four additional bedrooms round out the upper level. Peg and groove oak floors. Steel casement windows through most of the house. A large three-car garage with a huge guest apartment is the ultimate flexible space. Incredible walkability and access to studios, the Greek, Griffith Park hiking/tennis/golf, and all Hollywood has to offer.
