Property Description

The Harry and Louise Bartosh Residence circa 1929. Welcome to this exceptional Spanish Colonial Revival home located in prime Miracle Mile HPOZ. This stretch of town represented the glamorous shopping and commercial district that was being built to cater to the automobile. Department stores like Desmond's would have gorgeous display windows in the front and valet parking in the back. America's first supermarket, Ralph's, is still located along this strip. When Harry Bartosh, who ran the E.A. Candy Company, was ready to build a custom home, where better than the center of this bustling community. This architectural Spanish gem is rich in character; the home retains original details including stained-glass windows, Spanish tile, decorative metalwork, and hardwood floors. Thoughtful updates made over time were designed to honor its classic style while adding modern comfort. A dramatic entry leads to spacious living and dining rooms that flow seamlessly into a covered outdoor lounge, kitchen, and patio, all connecting back to the inviting family room. The layout includes a custom kitchen, powder room, and a downstairs bedroom with an ensuite bathideal as a guest room or office. Upstairs offers three well-sized bedrooms, laundry, and ample closet space. Set on an expansive, wide lot with lush landscaping, the backyard has room for a pool, and the gated driveway leads to a detached garage with ADU potential. A rare opportunity to own a piece of Los Angeles history with enduring style and substance. The floor plan was provided from the previous sale. Buyer is advised to independently verify the accuracy of all information.
