A timeless artist's retreat awaits you among the storied hills of Laurel Canyon. Sited on a corner lot and elevated above the street behind a gorgeous granite wall, this property makes the most of every square foot, both inside and out. Built in 1956, the home embodies the hallmarks of a classic California bungalow and combines it with modern updates to create a unique and stylish sanctuary. The main living area features warm, hardwood floors, an elegant brick fireplace, and a chic kitchen where every detail has been thoughtfully curated. The large bathroom features a luxurious shower/tub combination, gorgeous tiled floor, a sink with an elegant wood base, and a bidet. The bedroom features french doors that open to a patio. The second bedroom and bath on the lower level are entirely separate from the upper level, making the space ideally suited for guests. Also located on the lower level beneath the deck is the laundry closet with stacked washer and dryer. Outside, take your pick from dining or lounging on a huge deck at the front of the house, while gazing at the beautiful canyon views. Down below, enjoy the quaint path surrounded by assorted flowers, raised beds, and citrus trees, ending at a serene seating area overlooking the street. On the first level of the back yard, a patio of granite pavers surrounded by lush landscaping runs the length of the house and is accessible from both the kitchen and the bedroom. From there, a brick pathway leads to a second, elevated patio beneath towering pine trees and features posts for string lighting, creating a dreamy setting for summer soirees. And if all that wasn't enough, a small air-conditioned office/studio situated at the rear of the yard offers an idyllic writer's retreat. Finally being a very short distance to the coveted Wonderland Elementary is icing on the cake. This property offers incredible features that are best appreciated in person!
