540 Mount Washington Drive, Los Angeles, CA 90065 (MLS # 25612113)
|
Tucked beyond the gates in lush Mount Washington, a winding drive leads to a rare Mediterranean-Moorish estate set on nearly an acre of verdant grounds. Originally built in 1921 and lovingly restored over the past three decades, this extraordinary retreat encompasses four separate parcels, offering exceptional privacy and scale. Graceful arches, French doors, hand-painted mission beam ceilings, and remarkable historic details define the grand interiors, where sunlight streams through stained glass and walls of windows. The upper-level library, with custom millwork and a decorative mantel, serves as a captivating focal point. The kitchen, featuring Viking appliances and Saltillo tile floors, opens seamlessly to multiple gathering spaces ideal for entertaining. Three bedrooms include a tranquil primary suite with a wood-beamed ceiling and soaking tub. A detached two-bedroom guest house provides flexible use as a multi-generational retreat, artist studio, or income property. Winding pathways meander through olive, citrus, and guava trees, past fountains and terraces, leading to a grand brick patio with an outdoor hearth, an enchanting setting for gatherings large or small. This majestic canyon sanctuary lies within the sought-after Mt. Washington Elementary boundary, just minutes from Pasadena, DTLA, the Music Center, and the vibrant Figueroa corridor, home to some of LA's most exciting restaurants.
