Essentially perched on a hill where Mount Washington and Highland Park meet, this is a quintessential mid-century modern stunner. Three bedrooms, two baths, a stylish kitchen, bonus room, lots of yard space, and located in the coveted Mount Washington Elementary School District? Yes, please.
1161 Olancha Drive was built in 1953 and though it’s had a few careful updates over the years, the home is as visionary and perfect as it was designed over 50 years ago. Cool yet understated, the living room features wood paneling, walls of glass, clerestory windows, and an epic stone fireplace.
Gleaming original hardwood floors and unique and practical built-ins can be found throughout.
The updated kitchen seamlessly blends original character with today’s modern amenities. This stainless steel stove and oven were built in the 1950s with one thing in mind: to last.
Just off the kitchen is a lovely formal dining room.
The master suite is spacious and bright and includes a private patio.
Sharp lines and style continue in two more bedrooms, two bedrooms, and this nice bonus room perfect for an office, children’s playroom, or other workspace.
The super private backyard is a great spot to entertain or to relax. Notice those serene hillside views in the distance.
The home is set back from the street with lots of frontage and yard space all around creating plenty of room to play and explore.
Close to the Self Realization Fellowship up the mountain, Moon Canyon, the Southwest Museum, and all the restaurants and shops of Highland Park and Eagle Rock, 1161 Olancha Drive is not to be missed.
It’s one stunning example of impressive mid-century modern design.
