2017 El Cerrito Place, Los Angeles, CA 90068

Description

Step behind the gates and back in time to 1927. As one of the original crown jewels of Outpost Estates, this romantic Spanish estate doesn't just have history-it has a soul. Meticulously updated for modern living, the home feels like a carefully curated treasure, blending Old Hollywood glamour with a worldly, bohemian spirit. The experience begins the moment you cross the threshold. You're greeted by a breathtaking, two-story circular foyer that feels less like an entryway and more like a scene from a Golden Age film, crowned by two charming hallway archways that feel as though they were lifted from the pages of a storybook. Beyond the foyer, the home unfolds into a grand living room that captures the timelessness of Old Hollywood. Elegant in scale yet remarkably inviting, the space is anchored by a stunning fireplace that naturally draws everyone together. Whether hosting an intimate cocktail gathering or just curling up with a book, the room strikes that rare balance between impressive and effortlessly cozy. The magic is in the details. Around every corner, thoughtfully collected reclaimed pieces transform the home into a true sanctuary. Imagine hosting dinner under a pergola supported by century-old, hand-carved Indonesian columns, or passing through ancient, weathered doors salvaged from India and Morocco. Even the ground beneath your feet tells a story, with 150-year-old terracotta tiles from Tuscany and hand-painted accents shimmering around the saltwater pool. Inside, the home offers exceptional versatility. A richly appointed, wood-accented flex space, is equally suited as a sophisticated home office, home theater, or luxurious fourth bedroom. It flows seamlessly into the chef's kitchen, where professional-grade Viking and Sub-Zero appliances are beautifully integrated into a space ideal for everyday living and elegant entertaining. At it's heart, the home embraces effortless indoor-outdoor living. French doors open to a private backyard retreat, featuring a decorative outdoor fireplace, a built-in kitchen, and secluded lounge spaces designed for entertaining, relaxing, or lingering beneath the stars. When it's time to unwind, the light-filled primary suite unfolds like a private sanctuary. Complete with two generous walk-in closets and a newly renovated spa-inspired bath, it offers a peaceful escape from the outside world. Step out onto your quaint, private veranda to watch the moon rise over the lush, sprawling grounds. More than a home, this is a transformative experience -one that beautifully captures the romance, artistry, and enduring spirit of the golden age of the Hollywood Hills.
