In 1961, celebrated mid-century architects Buff & Hensman completed this peaceful residence, a spacious sanctuary integrated into the lush native landscape of the Bellehurst Hillslopes. The reimagined 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath main house elegantly perches above a permitted 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom ADU, offering two tranquil, separate units for creative possibilities.The primary level of the main residence embraces an indoor/outdoor lifestyle, with a large South-facing deck that bathes the interior in natural light. Enjoy your morning coffee on the Eastern deck while watching the sunrise surrounded by birdsong, then gather for dinner on the Western deck as the sun filters through the treetops.The open living area invites for joy and creativity, providing room for kids to play and social gatherings. A mid-century sandstone fireplace graces the family room, creating a cozy atmosphere for the colder months. Space for entertaining and relaxation in equal measure. A brand new kitchen in European oak, a half bath, and a fully renovated laundry room complete this level, along with a two-car garage.The original oak and fir staircase leads up to three bedrooms and two bathrooms, including a generous South-facing primary suite with a fireplace, soaking tub, walk-in closet, and glimpses of downtown LA.The permitted ADU below, accessible from its own private entrance, features an open living area surrounded by treetop views and birdsong, with two private decks, and a brand new European oak kitchen and laundry area. This tranquil retreat offers the opportunity for multigenerational living, a guest suite, artist space, or rental income.At the heart of the sprawling garden lives a majestic California Coast Live Oak, over a century old, surrounded by native and low-maintenance plants. The gentle sounds of a cascading waterfall and pond attract a variety of wildlife, crafting a serene refuge for nature lovers and entertainers alike.A series of photographs of this home were captured during its construction by renowned architectural photographer Julius Shulman. These historic prints reside in the Getty Museum's archives, preserving the legacy of this home as a part of California's architectural heritage.
