1927 Mediterranean reinterpreted for the 21st century. The former residence of lauded architect William Hefner & acclaimed interior designer Kazuko Hoshino remains a brilliant triumph in Mediterranean design imbued with a distinct French influence, and maintains its status as one of the most admired homes in historic Hancock Park. Superbly executed on every level, the main residence and its detached two-story guest house feature an outstanding array of exceptional materials throughout including: an abundance of limestone, slab marble, luxurious tile, custom built-ins, and iron & glass details. A recent collaboration with Nickey Kehoe Design Studio, has infused the home with a warm, textured style creating an ultra-comfortable ambience amidst the timeless design elements. A formal foyer with limestone floor and contemporary wrought iron balustrade, provides a central opening to all public rooms, including a large living room with fireplace, formal dining room, and library/office. Superb light-filled eat-in kitchen with Calcutta marble counter-tops and island, is accentuated by a casual country fireplace. Three bedroom suites up including primary bedroom with fireplace, walk-in closet, and spacious spa-like bath with French doors overlooking towering sycamore trees and the lush rear yard. Multiple patios, gardens, and 60-ft. lap pool flank the 2-level guest quarters, each with bedrooms and full baths. Other notable features include a 600-bottle wine cellar. Reminiscent of a compound along the French Riviera, this sophisticated retreat blends perfectly within the fabric of LA city life, conveniently situated between charming Larchmont Village and the trendy shops & restaurants along La Brea & Melrose Avenue. A truly unique and remarkable offering for the most discerning Buyer.
