This architectural Modernist Streamline home…
… in the heart of Los Feliz is thoughtfully updated to preserve the spirit and character of its 1939 origins. Filled with natural light and surrounded by lush, private gardens, the home offers an inviting balance of historic character and modern comfort. Original details include exquisite 1930s lighting, a beautifully carved wood banister, and a wood-paneled den with built-in desk and shelving, designed as part of a 1950 interior renovation by architect William Alexander Levy. The front balcony captures an extraordinary, unobstructed view of Griffith Observatory, while the serene grounds and spacious deck create an idyllic setting for entertaining or retreating into nature. Recent improvements include a brand-new whole-house water filtration system, complemented by the home's thoughtful modernization throughout. Just moments from Griffith Park, the Greek Theatre, and the restaurants and shops of Los Feliz Village, this is a rare opportunity to own a beautifully preserved piece of Los Angeles history.
