Perched right under the Griffith Park Observatory, this stunning mid-century modern post and beam home is in good company: neighbors include architecturally significant homes from Frank Lloyd Wright, Leland Bryant, and Paul Williams.
Every vantage point offers unique views of not only the Observatory, but also city lights and, on clear days, stretch all the way to the Pacific.
Perhaps the street was named Catalina because from way up here you can see Catalina Island. You may need a telescope, but still.
This one-of-a-kind two bedroom home has been recently reimagined with smart, modern features and great updates.
The wood paneled facade has thankfully maintained its wonderful natural finish. I love the teal trim as well, plus the pedant lights, address sign, and the mailbox.
Step inside and find a great open plan layout.
The living room has built-in bookcases and shelving, a home theatre projector and screen, hardwood floors, and incredible wood beamed ceilings.
The beautiful wood beamed ceilings feature throughout the whole home. The updated kitchen offers the perfect spot to entertain.
There’s an eat-in bar, a wine refrigerator, stainless steel appliances including a dish washer and gas range, and plenty of storage and counter space.
The dining room has views for days. And notice that telescope I mentioned earlier!
Slide open the doors and enjoy the neighborhood views on this covered deck.
The primary bedroom has hillside and Observatory views.
I mean, imagine going to bed and waking up to this view of the Observatory. Amazing.
The primary bath features a soaking tub and a luxurious walk-in shower with bench seating.
The second bedroom has ample closet space and a unique chandelier.
The home’s second bath is simple yet stylish.
The property includes off-street parking for three cars, dual-paned casement windows throughout, and some potential to add value in the side yard (pool, ADU, another deck).
The back and side yard also boast terraced spaces for urban gardening.
And if you enjoy walking and hiking through Griffith Park, 2515 N Catalina is a dream. There are two park entrances within a short distance of your front door. This hilltop home is a mid-century modern marvel just seconds from all your favorite shops and restaurants in Los Feliz Village.
