Welcome to the Highland Park hillside retreat you’ve been waiting for, an effortlessly soulful, sun-drenched Spanish that blends timeless character with curated design and cinematic views. Thoughtfully restored and stylishly reimagined, this 3-bed, 2-bath main home plus brand-new 1-bed, 1-bath ADU spans 1,592 sq ft of vibrant, view-filled living. Every detail is a nod to L.A.’s golden era: arched doorways, stained glass skylights, original oak wood floors, hand-restored wood windows and doors, brass fittings, all layered with warmth, texture, and intention. Two of the bedrooms open to a balcony with unobstructed westward views of Downtown LA and the Griffith Observatory. Sunsets here are nothing short of iconic. The formal dining room and primary suite spill out to a wooden pathway that leads into an absolutely magical, multi-zone backyard. Cowboy pool for sun-soaked lounging. Alfresco dining beneath the trees. A built-in bar, fire pit lounge, fountain, and terraced front gardens that make a bold, botanical statement. Lush, layered, and designed for the way Angelenos live. The brand-new ADU is a gem, with its own private entrance, a charming courtyard, Saltillo tile floors, 10-foot ceilings, custom cabinetry, a stylish kitchen and a charming bathroom. Whether used for income, guests, or creative space, it adds flexibility and value to match the home’s beauty. Modern upgrades include all-new electrical with 200-amp panel, plumbing, tankless water heater, roof, HVAC, insulation, EV charger, appliances, and laundry hookups; every system is updated for comfort and peace of mind. This is more than a home, it’s a lifestyle, a design-forward sanctuary, and a rare opportunity to own a piece of historic Highland Park with soul, scale, and serious upside. With its perch on a hill, its private and serene backyard, and sweeping views, this special retreat feels far away, yet just a couple of blocks from all that York and Figueroa Bvds have to offer.
