Nestled in the heart of sought-after Franklin Hills, 1518 Sanborn is a rare 4 bed/3 bath 3-level gem with extraordinary panoramic views, a street-to-street lot, and a large entertainer's yard just moments away from Sunset Junction and Los Feliz - the perfect blend of luxury, tranquility, and location! Set back from the street behind a lush drought-tolerant garden, the crisp, mid-century inspired home sparkles with a flair that's both modern and timeless. Up the entry stairs, find yourself in a living/dining room where warm golden hour sunlight pours through large windows and awe-inspiring vistas span all the way to the westside. With both a living room and family room on the second/entry level, there's enough space to entertain while maintaining space and privacy. Upstairs, find a massive, luxurious primary suite with walk-in closet, dressing area, gas fireplace, built-ins, and recently renovated bathroom. Also upstairs find a smaller bedroom with some of the best views in the house - the perfect spot for a home office that rejuvenates and inspires. Downstairs, find two more spacious bedrooms, a bathroom, and laundry. The true star of the home is its exquisite, tastefully landscaped entertainer's back yard - a place to enjoy the best outdoor living LA has to offer. Have your morning coffee under the custom-built pergola taking in magical views of Griffith Observatory and the Hollywood sign, or entertain friends across multiple decks and gathering spaces, each with views more breathtaking than the last. If you're looking to expand your footprint on the street-to-street lot, explore the possibility of building an ADU with its own private entrance on Cumberland. While home feels like a secluded urban oasis, you're in the heart of one of the most desirable neighborhoods in Los Angeles - the home is just a few blocks away from both Sunset Junction in Silver Lake and the shops and restaurants on Hillhurst in Los Feliz and sits in the highly desirable Franklin Elementary and John Marshall High School districts. If you've been searching for a peaceful hillside haven and a home in the heart of the action, 1518 Sanborn is a rare opportunity to own the best of both worlds!
