Your heart wants that sexy hillside house, but your mind nags you to pick the practical one, close to work. Your heart wants that view house with the private backyard, but your mind wants that practical one, convenient to neighborhood cafes and restaurants. Your heart wants that historical charm, but your mind wants practical updates and modern conveniences. What if you could have it all? This romantic 1920s Spanish revival sits up on a knoll in the undulating hills of the aptly named View Heights. From the first moment you enter and see the stunning original wood ceiling and arched window, you know that this is someplace special. A place that could be home. Flow a couple steps up to the formal dining room set high up above the street, the perfect perch to celebrate your new home. Then enter into the gorgeous dreamy creamy kitchen with herringbone acacia countertops, warm gold accents - the perfect place to prepare cozy meals. The mahogany french doors lead you to the very exciting and private multi-level private sanctuary of a backyard. Tell your friends to prepare for sunset cocktails on the deck at the top of your backyard - first one to arrive gets dibs on the hanging chair! The detached garage provides a myriad of possibilities! Back inside, enjoy the central AC/heat, foundation upgrades, just remodeled kitchen, and room to add a second bathroom in the extremely spacious main bedroom (check out that proposed floor plan). This is one you can really settle into and relax. Warm, friendly neighbors who smile and wave as they walk their dogs. Fun local businesses just blocks away. Walk to Puerto Nuevo for a weekday diner breakfast with a friend. Need a coffee break? Hilltop coffee has some of the best coffee in the city, and don't forget their fresh beignets! Or pop into the Googie landmark Simply Wholesome for a snack. The adorable Art Deco low rise shops on Slauson welcome you to explore, taste and experience. Coming soon, you can soon enjoy Jon & Vinny's and Helen's Wines just around the corner. Later, stop by Post & Beam for happy hour with delicious artisanal cocktails. Enjoy beautiful local parks like Ladera Park and North Park. Have fun on the 13 mile Park to Playa bike trail (from the Baldwin Hills Parklands to the Pacific Ocean!) or hike your dog along the lake in hilly 400 acre Kenneth Hahn Park, with bonus 360 degree views of LA. All this amongst gentle hills and historic beauty, in a cozy neighborhood pocket just 20 minutes from DTLA, 10 minutes from Culver City, and 15 from the beach! Welcome to ViewHeightsSpanish.com.
