Step into a world where curated design and Californian ease converge: welcome to this newly constructed sanctuary in the verdant hills of Eagle Rock, envisioned by the acclaimed local design firm AAHA Studio. Poised on a sun-drenched corner lot, this ground-up modern masterpiece pays gentle homage to Mediterranean tradition with striking arched accents, exposed wood beams, and a warm palette of cream, rich browns, and olive greens. The result? A home that feels at once timeless and entirely of-the-moment. A smooth stucco faade and flat roofline give the exterior a sleek, architectural presence. Beyond the arched entryway, the main residence unfolds across two spacious floors of thoughtfully composed living space. High ceilings and vertical windows flood the home with natural light, illuminating rich hardwood floors and custom-crafted details throughout. In the foyer, a cozy under-stair seating nook with hidden storage adds a moment of charm and quiet functionality, while a bespoke wood-milled staircase with integrated bookshelves ascends like a sculptural centerpiece. At the heart of the home, the open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area invites connection and calm. The chef's kitchen is a vision in marble and tile, complete with an oversized island, stainless steel appliances, and arched design flourishes that echo the home's architectural soul. Sliding glass doors lead to one of two expansive patios, opening the living space to a drought-tolerant courtyard with built-in bench, and landscaped with native flora and a bustling olive tree. A guest bedroom and artful full bath grace the first floor, while the second level offers three more bedrooms and two stunning baths, including a luxurious primary suite that feels more like a private retreat. Step onto your personal balcony, prepare a morning espresso at your built-in coffee bar, and unwind in a spa-like ensuite bath featuring a freestanding soaking tub, dual sinks, heated floors, towel warmer, and dual closets including a generous walk-in. Two additional guest bedrooms share a beautifully tiled full bath and access to a long private terrace, an ideal perch for sunset reflections. A convenient laundry area rounds out the upper level, while a half-flight above reveals the crown jewel: a breathtaking 760 sq ft rooftop deck with panoramic views across the surrounding hills. The detached guest house is equally refined, with private access, an open-concept living and kitchen area, one bedroom, one luxurious bathroom, its own patio, and dedicated space for a stacked washer/dryer... perfect for guests, extended family, or creative pursuits. Sustainability is woven into every inch of the property. From the comprehensive water filtration system and entirely electric infrastructure to the eco-friendly rain garden that harvests rainwater for smart irrigation, this home champions a lifestyle of thoughtful stewardship without compromising an ounce of comfort or style. A full two-car garage with vertical paneling and direct home access adds utility and style, completing this one-of-a-kind offering in one of Northeast LA's most coveted neighborhoods. Just moments from the charming shops and eateries of Eagle Rock and Highland Park, this is more than a home, it's a carefully crafted living experience where elegance, ecology, and ease coexist in perfect harmony.
