Description

Prepare to fall head over heels for this Mt. Washington gem, sited on the serene hillside of this historic neighborhood, known for its wildlife, trails, and highly regarded elementary school. This meticulously maintained home opens up under vaulted wood beams, with renovated kitchen, white oak floors, and treetop views. The main home includes a tranquil primary suite with wood beams, custom walk-in closet, and marble floor and walls in primary bath. Elegant Farrow & Ball paint adorns the second bedroom, and Cole & Son wallpaper and Rejuvenation hardware shine in the eye-catching second bathroom. Down the exterior stairs, a fully separate, spacious two-room, one-bath suite offers guest quarters, an artist's studio, or a home office. Indoor/outdoor living is at its best here. Enjoy dinners with friends on the front deck or quiet moments of solitude out back, overlooking the hillside. Durable Ipe wood decking surrounds much of the home, while drought-tolerant landscaping keeps upkeep low. Fruit trees (lemons, oranges, peaches, loquats) and grapevines do their thing, with the perfect space for a bocce or shuffleboard court. The home has undergone extensive renovation and upgrading during the past decade, including newer electrical (panel and wiring), roof replacement, HVAC installation, window upgrades, newer appliances, decking, and landscaping. Very thoughtful and impactful upgrades that offer seamless modern living. NELA is a spectacular place to live, with easy access to popular restaurants on Figueroa, York, Pasadena, Eagle Rock Blvd, and Frogtown. Close proximity to the Self-Realization Fellowship, the former Mt. Washington Hotel. A rare offering. **GPS may direct you to Mt Washington Dr. Please enter from the Figueroa side and make sure you are on Glenalbyn Dr.**
