Description

Tucked along a picturesque tree-lined street in Atwater Village's coveted Equestrian District, this exquisitely restored c.1931 Spanish bungalow blends historic Art Deco charm with elevated modern design. Set on an expansive 7,300 sf flat lot, the property includes a beautifully designed guest house/ADU and a series of romantic indoor-outdoor spaces made for entertaining. Elevated designer touches grace the property inside and out, with a sunny living room featuring an arched vintage picture window, original working fireplace, hardwood floors, and striking bas-relief ceiling detail. The home flows effortlessly into a designer chef's kitchen with luxurious finishes including marble mosaic floors and countertops, custom reeded mahogany cabinetry, Liebherr refrigeration, and a handsome ILVE range, all opening to the backyard through dramatic Pinky's Iron Doors for seamless indoor-outdoor living. Two bedrooms are privately situated and retain charming original details, including wood-frame windows and vintage door hardware. The hall bathroom rivals that of a five-star hotel, featuring heated marble floors, a steam shower, Penhaglion clawfoot soaking tub, and a gorgeous custom vanity - all thoughtfully designed with a nod to the emerging Art Deco style of the 1930s. The guest house/ADU is a beautiful extension of the home's architecture and quality of finishes. It includes a kitchenette, sleeping area, and a colorful vintage-inspired tiled bath, along with Pinky's casement doors and windows that open to a private patio set within the lush, hedged yard. Just beyond are a swaying hammock, fragrant fruit trees, and a raised vegetable garden. As day turns to night, the outdoor spaces truly come alive. The dining terrace, framed by olive trees and soft landscape lighting, sets the stage for year-round gatherings under the stars. Nearby, a bubbling fountain and expansive outdoor living room create a cozy atmosphere with a firepit and Deco sconces illuminating the evenings. The home's curb appeal is equally striking, with native plantings surrounding a babbling water feature, mature olive tree, flagstone driveway, and a Saltillo-tiled front courtyard - yet another inviting space to enjoy the California weather. Extensive systems improvements and upgrades reflect exceptional pride of ownership and attention to detail. Just moments from the LA River path and miles of trails in Griffith Park, this home sits in close proximity to beloved neighborhood destinations including Proof Bakery, Wine & Eggs, Holy Basil, and the Atwater Village Farmers Market. A rare opportunity to own a character-rich Spanish compound in one of Northeast LA's most celebrated neighborhoods.
