Property Description

Here is a gift for the Holiday Season! A mid-century gem offering scale, view, and enduring architectural character in prime Silver Lake. Sited along a coveted stretch of Kenilworth Avenue, this 1950s classic captures cinematic vistas of the Silver Lake Reservoir and the San Gabriel Mountains. Iconic mid-century lines, walls of glass, and effortless indoor-outdoor movement to the dining terrace define the home's timeless spirit. Upon entry, sweeping views immediately expand the formal living and dining room. A decorative classic brick, open corner-view fireplace grounds the space with true mid-century presence, enhanced by original soffit lighting and access to two outdoor terraces. The modernized kitchen includes generous cabinetry, abundant counter space, a breakfast area, and views of the front garden and mountains. A full bedroom with ensuite bath on this level opens to a terrace with reservoir, mountain, and treetop outlooks. A magnesite staircase, a hallmark of the era, leads to the warm and functional lower level. Here, a light-filled den with a second decorative fireplace, an original built-in desk, and a floor-to-ceiling bookcase highlights the home's architectural roots. The primary bedroom enjoys reservoir and treetop views and has direct access to the shared hall bath. A third bedroom, hallway lined with abundant built-in storage, and a spacious utility room complete this level. A substantial laundry room offers potential for creative use or a play space that opens directly to the expansive yard. The generous backyard provides room for a pool, outdoor kitchen, playground, a dedicated workspace, or full ADU. There is a spacious garage with room for storage and one large vehicle or two small cars. A special opportunity to live in an iconic pocket of Silver Lake, just moments from the reservoir path, meadow, and the neighborhood's beloved cafes and hotspots.
