Property Description

Step into the timeless elegance of this grand Spanish Colonial Revival in the coveted Country Club Park HPOZ. Rich with original character and architectural detail, this remarkable residence offers a rare opportunity for the right buyer to thoughtfully restore a true Los Angeles classic. Original hardwood floors, graceful arched windows, vintage tile surrounding the fireplace, and many period light fixtures remain, showcasing the craftsmanship and artistry of a bygone era. The spacious main level features expansive formal living and dining rooms, a charming front parlor, a kitchen with an adjoining breakfast room, and a bedroom and bath that originally served as maid's quarters. Upstairs, you'll find four generously sized bedrooms connected by two classic Jack-and-Jill bathrooms, providing an ideal layout for a growing household. Beyond the main home, a detached one-bedroom, one-bath guest house of approximately 658 square feet offers excellent flexibility for guests, extended family, or a future creative workspace. Adding to its historical significance, the home was designed by renowned 1920s architect Anna C. Geck, one of the few prominent female architects of her era, whose distinctive Spanish Colonial Revival designs can be found throughout Los Angeles and Orange Counties. While the property requires substantial renovation, including the roof and major systems, it presents an extraordinary opportunity to preserve and reimagine an architecturally significant residence in one of Los Angeles' most treasured historic neighborhoods. For those with vision and appreciation for historic homes, this is a chance to create something truly exceptional.
