Welcome to our favorite neighborhood and our absolute favorite street. 59th Place is a wide, green street full of warm neighbors, undulating hills, lovely views, gorgeous period homes and is walkable to Hilltop Coffee and Jon & Vinny's. And this gorgeous home is at the top of the hill on the best street! This quiet location with peek-a-boo views offers the best of LA living.
Inside - enjoy the extensive and meticulous restoration: coved ceilings, trey ceilings, archways, bay window, crystal doorknobs, brass toggles, gorgeous new wallpaper and original hardwood floors. There's even a restored bathroom with a charming pink tub and toilet, and a new primary bathroom in the vintage style, plus color and drama! This is the best combination of historic details with a contemporary open floor plan the perfect space for gatherings where your friends and family will ooh and ahh over your beautiful taste! The large, gracious living room comes complete with a decorative fireplace and a beautiful original hexagonal window, open to a beautiful dining room with large bright windows. Next, enjoy the newly remodeled kitchen with wine fridge, coffee bar area, hidden laundry, and gorgeous cabinets with Semihandmade doors sprayed in the most beautiful Farrow and Ball green. No more carrying your bbq items through your bedroom, the kitchen offers direct access to the outside.
The three charming bedrooms feature the most beautiful of architectural details, with the front bedroom the perfect zoom-from-home space that will have coworkers wondering what stunning English countryside estate you're calling from. The primary bedroom offers a wonderful cedar-lined walk-in closet and spacious ensuite bathroom with chic wallpaper and arched shower. With a beautiful set of warm wood french doors leading out to the lush backyard, you'll feel like you're on vacation everyday. View Heights has the most delicious afternoon ocean breeze - enjoy it in your generously sized, private backyard with deck off main bedroom + multiple seating areas + delicious mature orange tree. This house has the perfect indoor-outdoor flow, with the 289 sq ft finished garage functioning as additional living/entertaining or even working space, complete with sliding doors that welcome you into the lush, private backyard. Once again, get those remote coworkers wondering about the peek-a-boo view over your shoulder. So many great updates: New AC, newer roof, 200 amp electrical panel with tesla charger, tankless water heater.
Just a hop, skip and jump to Culver City and the beach, View Heights is one of our favorite neighborhoods. Warm, friendly neighbors who smile and wave as they pass by with their dogs. Fun local businesses just blocks away. Saunter over to Puerto Nuevo for a weekday diner breakfast with a friend. Need a coffee break? Hilltop coffee has some of the best coffee in the city, and don't forget their fresh beignets! Or pop into the Googie landmark Simply Wholesome for a snack (the Jamaican patties are our fave!) The adorable Art Deco low rise shops on Slauson welcome you to explore, taste and experience. Enjoy Jon & Vinny's and Helen's Wines (the lunch is fabulous and never crowded!). Later, stop by Post & Beam for happy hour with delicious artisanal cocktails. Enjoy beautiful local parks like Ladera Park and North Park. Have fun on the 13 mile Park to Playa bike trail (from the Baldwin Hills Parklands to the Pacific Ocean!) or take your dog to the lake in hilly 400 acre Kenneth Hahn Park, with bonus 360 degree views of LA. All this amongst gentle hills and historic beauty, in a cozy neighborhood pocket just 20 minutes from DTLA, 10 minutes from Culver City, and 15 from the beach!
