Step into timeless sophistication at "The Griffith Estate", a meticulously restored and expanded Federal-style residence perched above the fairways of the Wilshire Country Club in one of Los Angeles' most coveted neighborhoods. Originally built in 1929 by Jonathan Ring, this rare architectural gem offers sweeping golf course views and a seamless blend of historic elegance and modern luxury. Set on a beautifully landscaped lot, the home showcases hallmark Federal-style elements with symmetrical proportions, classic brickwork, shuttered windows, and refined moldings creating enduring curb appeal. During an extensive renovation, the current owner thoughtfully added approximately 6,000 square feet, elevating the estate while preserving its architectural integrity. Inside, the grand formal living and dining rooms feature original hardwood floors, intricate crown moldings, Zuber wallpaper, and custom built-ins. A chef's kitchen balances form and function with marble countertops, high-end appliances, and abundant cabinetry ideal for both daily living and entertaining. The primary suite is a private retreat with dual bathrooms and dual dressing rooms, offering serene views and exceptional comfort. Additional bedrooms provide flexibility for guests, family, or home office use. A detached guest house adds even more versatility, perfect for extended stays or creative space. This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Los Angeles history and an iconic estate overlooking the golf course, thoughtfully reimagined for modern living with grace and distinction.
