In Glassell Park, perched on a terraced hillside lot, this 1956 modern hillside home offers a rare blend of mid-century character and effortless indoor/outdoor living. A wonderful opportunity for buyers seeking mid-century character, indoor/outdoor flow, and a home with real architectural integrity in one of LA’s most sought-after creative corridors.

Thoughtfully maintained by its owners for the last 21 years, the home retains original architectural elements and custom built-ins that speak to its era. This home is a genuine time capsule for buyers who appreciate authentic design over gut renovations.

The single-level layout makes the most of its hillside setting, opening onto a refreshed deck with sweeping city and hillside views, perfect for morning coffee or evening entertaining. Front landscaping from the Theodore Payne Foundation frames the property, while a flat grass area adds rare usable outdoor space in this hillside pocket, perfect for gardening or simply extending the living space outward. Lush mature landscaping throughout the backyard makes you forget you’re in the heart of a thriving NELA neighborhood.

Highland Park’s York and Figueroa shops and restaurants, Glendale’s Americana, Downtown’s art and food scene, and all that Atwater Village and Eagle Rock have to offer are all within easy reach. This home offers the best of Northeast LA’s design-forward, community-oriented lifestyle with all the peace and privacy of a suburban neighborhood.

Systems include central heat and air, garage and EV-charging-ready off-street parking. Newer water heater, HVAC, and W/D. Kitchen has Viking appliances and Heath Ceramics tile backsplash.
