Los Angeles, CA 90046
$900,000 | 1 Bed | 2 Baths | 829 Sq. Ft. | 2,766 Sq. Ft. Lot | Built in 1927
Built by a Silent Movie star in 1927, this bungalow has been home to successful actors, musicians, filmmakers and photographers over the years.
It’s a piece of of Laurel Canyon history. Located on a quiet cul-de-sac street at the top of the canyon, luckily Weepah Way is not a cut-through street to get over the hill faster than you can on the 101 or Coldwater.
The home’s amazing and large wood deck is shielded from the street by lush bamboo and palm trees. It’s an excellent space to entertain outdoors, in addition to the great backyard which we will get to in a minute.
Inside, you’ll fin da bright setting with gorgeous and original hardwood floors in the living room.
The newer kitchen has lovely cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, an attractive deep green backsplash, large center island, plus new light fixtures and French doors that open to the flagstone patio.
The kitchen features an open layout with a nice space for intimate dining.
Swing open the French doors and be greeted with this wonderful outdoor space. Definitely the spot where you’ll love to spend my early evenings.
The home’s single bedroom is located just off the living room. It also has original hardwood floors and seriously lovely windows that provide plenty of light as well as the sweet canyon breeze.
The home has two bathrooms, and the main bathroom packs a lot of punch into its aesthetic and design.
There’s a great sink with ample closet space, plus a soaking tub and shower. And I just love this mahogany dresser commode. Not sure if this beautiful piece comes with the house though. We will have to check.
Although technically there is just one bedroom, the home makes ingenious use of many of its nooks and crannies, including turning this space into a great daybed or sleeping loft. The perfect spot to curl up with a good book or point in the direction of a friend who needs to crash for a night.
The there’s also this cozy guest unit downstairs which is great for overnight friend or family visits or could potentially become a short term rental or writer’s studio.
The guest unit has its own separate entrance and a covered patio.
The secluded backyard has an amazing heated spa on the upper terrace that is accessible by a short staircase alongside the house.
A few other highlights: Both the Heat & A/C are electric with a newer mini-split system. The garage has been outfitted with sound-proofed walls and has previously been used as a recording studio and TV editing room.
1934 Weepah Way is simply a magical home sure to inspire your creativity. It’s just a stone’s throw from the legendary Laurel Canyon Country Store, where all our favorite musicians and actors from the ’60s and ’70s (and some today, too) went. Plus, there’s so many hiking trails and untarnished nature nearby. It’s just a quick drive into the city but y0u’ll feel a world away in the heart of Laurel Canyon.
