Nestled in the coveted Upper Briggs Terrace neighborhood of La Crescenta–where mountain serenity meets city convenience–this mid-century modern home offers the perfect blend of privacy, views, and untapped potential. Designed for those who appreciate timeless architecture, it features expansive glass, open beam ceilings, and a stunning retro step-down living room with a dramatic floor-to-ceiling limestone fireplace as its centerpiece. It is not your typical layout, but the home is designed for both relaxation and entertainment. The secluded backyard boasts a private saltwater pool, while an upper viewing patio serves up breathtaking vistas of Downtown LA–perfect for sunset gatherings. Indoors, the open-concept dining and living areas invite endless possibilities for customization, allowing you to craft a space that reflects your vision. Additional highlights include paid solar, an oversized office off the kitchen, and a spacious breakfast area. Updated windows bring in abundant natural light, and a mature grapefruit tree in the yard promises a steady supply of fresh citrus. If you crave a home with character, privacy, and room to make your mark, this is a rare opportunity you won’t want to miss!
