Perched above it all with explosive 180° views of the San Gabriel Valley and mountains beyond, this Mount Washington gem blends natural beauty, privacy, and opportunity. Thoughtfully designed for indoor-outdoor living, this light-filled 2 bed, 2 bath home features vaulted ceilings, wood floors, and walls of glass that open to an expansive 30-ft east-facing balcony—perfect for sunrise coffee or wine under the stars.
The updated open kitchen includes a center island, stainless steel appliances, and modern cabinetry. A large loft-style primary bedroom overlooks the main level and offers flexibility for a home office or creative space. The living room, with its cozy fireplace and stunning views, is where calm meets character.
The home was appraised in May at $1,525,000, but the seller has dramatically adjusted the price to meet the current market. This is an exceptional value given the view, location, and upside potential.
An enclosed 800 sqft lower level (not included in the listed square footage) offers enormous potential for expansion. Architect plans and renderings show the possibility of expanding the space into a 2,100 sqft, 4 bed, 3 bath home—or a permitted ADU for rental income estimated at $3,000 to $4,000/month. Whether you''re looking for future upside or multi-generational living, the groundwork is in place.
Additional upgrades include owned solar, a tankless water heater, and a finished 2-car garage with epoxy floors. Nestled in the hills yet minutes from York Blvd, Highland Park, and DTLA, this is more than a home—it’s a lifestyle with a view.
Come for the sunsets, stay for the potential—and take advantage of a price that reflects both.
