Description

A Moderne, Art Deco inspired home, this five-bedroom residence pairs strong architectural character with a highly flexible layout. The standout upper-level bedroom opens to an expansive deck with treetop views and a glimpse of the Getty, making it ideal as a podcast studio, music room, office, creative space, or secondary lounge. The main level includes a custom kitchen with Taj Mahal countertops, a walk-in pantry, and an integrated breakfast table built into the island, along with formal dining, family room, formal living room, powder room, and an additional bedroom and bath. Large sliding glass doors open the main living spaces directly to the pool and deck, creating an easy indoor-outdoor flow. Curved steel-framed windows, barrel and truss ceilings, custom cabinetry, and hand-applied plaster give the interiors warmth and texture. The primary suite features a large walk-in closet with dressing area, soaking tub, Calcutta Viola stone, and a private bridge leading directly to the spa. The lower level adds another bedroom (or gym), wine cellar, laundry, and direct access to the two-car garage. Outside, the pool and spa are framed by structured, tiered landscaping with lavender, jasmine, and layered plantings that soften the architecture while keeping an intentional garden. Set on a quiet residential street with sidewalks and a subtle hilltop feel, yet conveniently south of Sunset and within the Warner School District, the home offers the best of a live/work and family lifestyle.
