Description

PRICE REDUCTION! Incredible views and VALUE. Up a quiet winding road, perched under a canopy of mature eucalyptus, a private and vibey treehouse circa 1978 rests in the clouds. And in the heart of desirable, historic, iconic Chevy Chase Canyon. WITH VIEWS. Oh my, the views. Show stopping vistas from every single window rivaled only by the drama of soaring cathedral ceilings exposed in nearly every room, balconies on every level and a continuous soundtrack of birdsong and whispering tree tops.

And in the heart of desirable, historic, iconic Chevy Chase Canyon. WITH VIEWS. Oh my, the views. Show stopping vistas from every single window rivaled only by the drama of soaring cathedral ceilings exposed in nearly every room, balconies on every level and a continuous soundtrack of birdsong and whispering tree tops. This masterpiece has been restored by its current designer-homeowner of 7 happy years (only the second in 50!) expertly marrying original features w/ modern systems, thoughtful upgrades, and exquisite finishes. Think round porthole windows, hand-hewn beams, a two story brick fireplace, wood windows and shingle siding. Think stunningly remodeled kitchen and bathrooms. Think upgraded roof, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and structural. The primary wing is a romantic vacation, featuring dreamy high ceilings, a trophy bathtub, separate shower, double vanity, and double walk in closets. Enjoy SPACE for everyone with 3 additional bedrooms, one currently used as a playroom. Plus a dedicated office/den/library, plus a bonus lofted guest space, plus a garage, plus unparallelled closet space. Plus. Plus. Plus. A stones throw to beloved Chevy Chase Country Club, Glenoaks Elementary, Glenoaks Park, Chevy Chase Library, Wild Oak Cafe, plus coming soon Erewhon! Perfectly positioned for exploring all of Northeast LA, Pasadena, and the foothills. But still just 15 minutes to DTLA. Keeping the company of architectural royalty, and at a knockout price point. Come over! Come see!
