This is one of those amazing Silver Lake homes you don’t even know exist because you can’t see them from the street if you’re out walking in the neighborhood. Then it hits the market and you wonder, “Whoa, has this been there the whole time?” Turns out, it has. Since 1924, in fact. But the four (possibly 5) bedroom home at 1536 Elevado Street has, of course, been wonderfully updated since. You won’t want to miss this oasis in the heart of Silver Lake.
Yes, these are the gates that makes the home nearly impossible to see from the street. Its fortress-like protection combined with the abundant surrounding trees make 1536 Elevado enclosed and private.
The front garden features immaculate desert and drought-appropriate landscaping, lovely stone pathways, and several lounging and entertaining areas.
Including this outdoor dining space, perfect for summer dinner parties.
Inside you’ll find hardwood floors, an open living layout, and several beautiful French and other handcrafted doors making many seamless passageways for easy Southern California indoor/outdoor living.
Indoor dining areas include a breakfast nook plus an eat-in breakfast bar. Inclusion of the framed portrait of Michael Jackson’s Thriller album could be negotiated.
The unique kitchen boasts tall wood paneled ceilings, arched windows, custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and that beautiful red tiled backsplash.
Upstairs you’ll find a separate sitting area/den ideal for movie nights.
The master bedroom is spacious and bright and has sliding door access to a rear wood deck.
Three more bedrooms, plus a den or office (and possible converted fifth bedroom), and a laundry room complete the home.
Back outside you’ll find many shady areas for lounging. Plus the newly built pool and spa, a classic sauna and steam hut, a chicken coop, a fire pit, and a gardening area.
1536 Elevado is located on the top of a hill on a quiet tree-lined street. It’s a private sanctuary just above Sunset Boulevard, in walking distance to Night + Market Song, Alfred Coffee, L&E Oyster Bar, the Silver Lake Reservoir, the dog park, and so much more. I could go on and on about the pleasures this home provides, but it’s best you just see it for yourself.
