For years when taking walks above Los Feliz Boulevard in the hills I’ve admired this unique showstopper of a home. I’d always stop for a moment to appreciate the sharp chiseled angeles and the seemingly perched and free floating mid-century design. Viewing it was a destination in itself.
Built in 194 by renowned architect Norman H. Lancaster and recently restored, this elevated post and beam residence boasts skyline views from its wraparound balcony and neighbors one of the most iconic homes in Los Angeles: Frank Lloyd Wright’s stunning Ennis House.
Once inside, you’ll feel stirred by the immaculate open layout, grand living room, pristine and restored hardwood floors, a big screen film projector, and floor-to-ceiling windows offering bright light and amazing views.
The professional chef’s kitchen is an expert example of design and function. A large kitchen island with eat-in seating, classic backsplash, elegant white shaker windows, dish washer, and gas stove create a charming and fine atmosphere. And the best part? It’s all open, right off the living area, so you won’t have to detach yourself from your guests while you entertain.
The dining area is gilded with authentic period details and sits right off the balcony, imaking for ideal indoor/outdoor Los Angeles living.
The master bedroom is a tranquil and secluded retreat, with high ceilings, calming lighting, and outstanding views.
The spacious en suite bath features a double sink, plenty of counter space and storage, and a beautifully tiled walk-in shower.
A second bright and airy bedroom rounds out the house.
The wraparound balcony has panoramic hillside views of Griffith Park and downtown.
The residence has abundant outdoor entertaining areas, lush with plants and cacti, including a covered and private patio space. Rain or shine, it’s perfect for dinner parties.
Only a short walk to the boutiques and restaurants in Los Feliz Village, and a stone’s throw from the Greek Theatre, this post and beam is a stunning hillside hideaway floating above the city.
