Thoughtfully renovated with attention to wood, light, and proportion, the home balances its original character with modern conveniences and a quiet, contemporary simplicity. A moment of stillness greets you at the entry, where the original fireplace creates a soft pause before city and hillside views open across the living spaces. Restored Pella windows throughout the home frame treetops and shifting sky, giving the interiors a gentle, treehouse like quality. The living room extends seamlessly to a wraparound redwood deck, a place where mornings feel bright and unhurried and evenings settle effortlessly into color. The kitchen blends midcentury roots with considered updates, preserving the original tile while introducing custom cabinetry painted in a lovely Farrow and Ball blue. Miele and Fisher Paykel appliances bring modern ease, integrated in a way that supports rather than distracts from the home's architectural clarity. In the primary suite bathroom, olive green Heath tile introduces a natural, grounded tone, complemented by an electrically operable skylight that welcomes natural light and fresh air. A second full bathroom along the hallway retains its original wood vanity with a marble countertop and a classic shower, a thoughtful nod to the home's enduring midcentury character. The three bedrooms located off the central hallway create a natural separation between the social spaces and the sleeping quarters. All are quiet, grounded rooms with leafy views and soft natural light. The surrounding landscape feels intimate and tucked away, with mature plantings, winding pathways and a cedar soaking tub that turns the garden into a restorative extension of the home. All major systems have been updated, including the roof, electrical, plumbing and an entirely new HVAC system, creating a move-in ready experience with nothing left to do but settle in. A spacious two car garage offers additional storage, workshop potential or a future studio conversion, adding flexibility to the property. Life here is deeply connected to the neighborhood. The home sits within easy reach of beloved Franklin Hills and Los Feliz staples such as Little Dom's, All Time, Maru Coffee, Alcove, Figaro, Barbrix, Kismet, and Loupiotte. Griffith Park, the stair streets, and local markets add to the sense of convenient accessible. A 1957 midcentury home renewed with restraint and care, offering a peaceful perch in one of the most cherished neighborhoods.
