Combining all your favorite styles – mid-century modern, post & beam, and tree houses – yes, tree houses – this is a delightful, incredibly stylish, and totally unique home located in one of the best enclaves of Echo Park’s Elysian Heights neighborhood, basically with just Park Drive separating you from the gorgeous natural setting of Elysian Park.
The open concept floor plan features soaring ceilings, walls of glass, and several skylights that create true Southern California indoor/outdoor living. The upper level hosts a light-filled office area with clerestory windows that provide plenty of sunshine throughout the day.
A central tiled hearth anchors the sleek and spacious living room.
The dining area seamlessly opens to the enormous backyard deck making al fresco entertaining easy and ideal.
The kitchen is modern and immaculate with custom cabinetry, a large butcher block island with eat-in seating, top-of-the-line Viking appliances, and Calcutta marble countertops. Swoon!
The kitchen also opens to the outdoor deck.
The lovely primary suite has park views, wood beams, and a sizable walk-in closet.
The primary bedroom en suite’s bath is updated and relaxed, with a wonderful soaking tub.
And an oversized shower.
The second bedroom is a convertible guest room with a Murphy bed. A truly flexible space for work-at-home convenience or to host friends and family when you want to while having your own multi-functional private space when you don’t.
The second bedroom also boasts built-in storage and its own bathroom.
The expansive rear deck creates additional areas for outdoor lounging and al fresco dining. It’s simply an amazing setting for entertaining.
The deck overlooks a verdant tree canopy and freshly landscaped backyard with stunning 180 degree vistas with sneaky views of the Hollywood Sign and Griffith Observatory, plus not to mention the stunning sunsets nightly.
There’s also a terraced backyard that is a tranquil space perfect for raised gardens and relaxation amongst nature. The entire property is private and gated with direct park access across the street.
Additional features include a laundry area, gated parking, solar-panels, and an EV car charger. 2157 Park Drive is a brilliant rendering of what makes Los Angeles living so remarkable: it’s an inspiring sanctuary for creativity and reflection, yet just steps to miles and miles of secluded park trails, while also offering quick access to all the best restaurants, bookstores, coffee shops, vintage retail, and nightlife on Los Angeles’s east side.
