Los Angeles, CA 90027

Steeped in rich character detail, behind a long, gated drive and lush landscaping, high above a cul-de-sac sits nearly 5,000 square feet of exceptional Mediterranean beauty designed by celebrated Art Nouveau architect, A.F. Leicht. This one-of-a-kind, 2.5 story home offering 4 beds and 5 baths is peppered with a collection of Moroccan style light fixtures and original sconces, tiled mosaic floors, and grand rooms defined by natural curves and asymmetrical plasterwork walls and ceilings. A cathedral-like raised living room, bathed in soft light by tall arched windows, is anchored by a spectacular jewel-tone tiled fireplace and leads out to an elegant backyard and secluded side patio. The home features a formal dining room with wet bar, eat-in breakfast nook, cook's kitchen with butcher-block island, family room with access to the pool and backyard, wine cellar, dual-zone central heating and cooling, a garage with original car turntable, and wiring to enjoy music throughout. Behind ornately carved wooden doors, the expansive primary suite includes a lower-level sitting room with fireplace and a private balcony overlooking the pool and spa. The primary bath features a steam shower and a jetted soaking tub beneath an elliptical skylight. The backyard is a true oasis with refreshing pool and spa, several fountains, an outdoor fireplace, and multiple seating areas ensconced by tall privacy hedges and drought-resistant gardens. Walking distance to Griffith Park and Observatory, the historic Greek theatre, Roosevelt Golf Course, and the many excellent restaurants and cafes, shops and movie theaters on Hillhurst and Vermont Aves. Situated north of the boulevard and neighbored by many architecturally significant homes, including two Frank Lloyd Wrights, you're nestled at the foot of myriad hiking trails weaving through some of Los Angeles' best recreational nature, and just minutes from the Silver Lake Reservoir, Vista Theater, and Barnsdall Art Park. Available for 1-year+ lease. Some rooms are virtually staged; home is delivered unfurnished.
