On one of the very best streets that surround the Silver Lake Reservoir is this stately Spanish-style home with Moroccan motifs, incredible revival-era architecture, and sweeping views of the San Gabriel Mountains.
Reminiscent of classic Hollywood glamour, this is one of the most stylish and fully realized 1930s Spanish-style estates I’ve seen in quite some time. You’ll love the rounded entries and arches, the gorgeous combination of the cross-gabled terra cotta roof and the wooden terraza.
This 3 bedroom, 2 bath home features a sunken living room with a beautiful fireplace, hardwood floors, and a Moroccan chandelier.
The pass-through dining room is simple yet stylish with unique built-ins and wonderful hillside views.
The kitchen boasts custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, great views, and a cozy breakfast nook with perhaps the best views of the mountains? We’ll have to discuss.
The primary bedroom suite is a tranquil space.
The en suite primary bath features the perfect blend of old and new with vintage tiles but modern brass fixtures that help evoke the time period when the home was built.
The second and third bedrooms are perfect for overnight guests.
Or, especially since 3414 Fernwood Avenue is located in the east side’s most prestigious school district, for children. Ivanhoe Elementary School is consistently ranked among the top public schools in all of Los Angeles.
Outside, you’ll find dreamy Laura Morton-designed outdoor spaces that exude an environment of Mediterranean splendor with vibrant colors, ornate light fixtures, a tiled water feature, and many fruit-bearing trees, including fig, lime, loquat, and pomegranate. Basically, your own orchard! Imagine the many bountiful Spring harvests…
In addition to the many outdoor spaces to entertain, the property also has several for solitude, reflection and relaxation while also enjoying the amazing views.
From the balcony off the living room – perhaps my favorite spot in the whole house – the floor-to-ceiling glass-paneled doors allow breathtaking views across the Los Angeles basin to the west and the majestic San Gabriel Mountains to the North.
Privacy and passion abound in this stunning and quite remarkable example of Spanish-style architecture. It’s absolutely one of Silver Lake’s most beautiful 1930s homes.
