Description

This property is no longer available to rent or to buy. This description is from March 28, 2024
A VIEW FOR A LIFETIME. c.1952 ...SAIL AWAY with this brilliantly positioned mid-century home that offers unparalleled living. An enviable layout, 5 bedrooms, 4.5 baths, sprawling across over 3600 sq ft., brace yourself for an elevated experience of seamless indoor/outdoor living. Prepare to be spellbound by expansive vistas that stretch as far as the eye can see. From the serene Silver Lake reservoir to the majestic San Gabriel Mountains adorned with snow-capped peaks, the iconic landmarks of the Hollywood Sign and Griffith Park Observatory, and captivating Downtown glimpses, each view is a masterpiece in itself. Crafted for comfort, the living room serves as the heart of the home, inviting you to marvel at the spectacle of the large expansive pool through walls of glass and multiple entrances. A genuine pantry and premium appliances make the kitchen ideal for culinary enthusiasts and provide direct access to the 2-car garage. The private-winged primary bedroom suite has double-sided views; a balcony where you appear to float at the edge of the lake and on the opposite side, you'll be night-gazing at the Observatory, where the real stars live. A lower terraced area that presently houses happy chickens, has extra space for your current vegan gardening obsessions. The private drive-up entrance offers a gradual incline, providing parking space for 5 cars. In every way, this is a residence like no other. Set sail.

The “residents” walk back and forth on Descanso, and I’ve been followed on 3 separate occasions and did not feel safe."
