Description

This Hollywood Hills penthouse residence, offering both privacy and a massive outdoor patio, is on the market for the very first time in over 50 years. It is your opportunity to own a piece of history. The Highlands Community was designed by esteemed mid-century architect Paul R. Williams, whose accomplishments include the Beverly Hills Hotel and the iconic Encounter restaurant at LAX. Step back in time as you enter this rare, 1 bedroom, 1.5 bath penthouse end-unit that features a vast 1,000+ sf rooftop patio- nearly as large as the unit itself - with serene views of the Hollywood Hills. The spacious light-filled living room flows seamlessly into the dining area as well as into another large nook, perfect for an office or separate seating area. The galley kitchen maintains its vintage character with light colored cabinetry, retro orange knobs, a Gaffers and Sattler range, and plenty of counter space, complete with an elevated countertop that opens to the dining area, perfect for enjoying casual meals on barstools. The dining area opens via sliding glass doors to a private patio so large that it doubles your living space. To call it oversized simply would be an understatement. This amazing space with views of the hills is the perfect place to entertain, enjoy meals al fresco and enjoy quiet Hollywood nights. The primary suite offers plenty of closet space, a full bathroom and separate vanity area. An additional half-bathroom is located off the entry hallway. With some upgrades and your imagination, this unit, being offered by its original owner, with its unique location in the complex and unparalleled outdoor space is just waiting to be transformed into the ultimate Hollywood Hills penthouse. Amenities at The Highlands include two swimming pools, a spa, tennis courts, gym, sauna, rec room and dog room, offering true resort-stye living. This unit also comes with two side-by-side parking spaces and plenty of storage. Ideally located with easy access to the 101 freeway, major studios, Hollywood Bowl, and plenty of hiking trails.
