This beautifully restored and updated Spanish Colonial Revival residence is sited in lower Beachwood Canyon (just below the Beachwood Cafe and Market) on a quiet cul-de-sac street. Walled and gated for ultimate privacy and security, the home has an open floor plan vibe, combining two living areas: One living room has a large fireplace and door to private grounds. The other area has historic, built-in niches and a picture window. Oversized beams line the vaulted ceilings; hardwood floors gleam beneath. Step up through an archway to a semi-formal dining room with access to the house’s chef’s kitchen. Recessed lighting and speakers are overhead. The kitchen has a breakfast bar AND center island. Custom cabinetry and Viking stainless-steel appliances line its walls. The kitchen’s large dining nook is great not only for eating, but for daily activities with kids, working remotely, or having a friend over for coffee. There is also a powder room off of the kitchen for additional functionality. The residence’s largest bedroom has custom built-ins, plenty of closet space, and French doors to an outdoor patio. The second bedroom is light and bright, with four individual windows. A big spa-like bathroom features a stand-alone soaking tub, a step-in shower bench and niche, and a custom sink cabinet with plenty of storage. BONUS ALERT: On a lower level (above grade) are spaces including a room (with two windows) big enough for a pull-out sofa and console (as it is used today), or a couple of treadmills, or a large home office. There is a closet here as well as an ample laundry room with side-by-side front-loading machines, folding counter, more custom cabinetry, and built-in drying racks. A side-by-side two-car garage with direct entrance has high ceilings, extra storage, and electric doors. This 1,830 sq.ft. residence (originally built in 1935) is like something out of a fairy tale, but when its outdoor spaces are taken into account, we move into the realm of fantasy. An intimate, romantic courtyard with its own fireplace connects to the kitchen, living area, and primary bedroom. Twinkling lights are interwoven with jasmine vines overhead. Saltillo tiles and chalk-white plaster continue the Spanish feel. There is also a bbq area on this level. Ascend a few steps to a grassy lawn (with its own dining area) that begins to tell the story of terraced planting beds and vegetable gardens. Mature trees line the lot–which is actually a combination of four lots. The main house sits on its own and there are three additional adjacent vacant lots behind, resulting in 10,880 sq.ft. of land. Close to Griffith Park’s hiking trails, Franklin Village, and everything Hollywood has to offer.
