The story
- Pool
Perched in the storied hills of Baldwin Hills Estates, this 1954 Mid-Century architectural residence has been reimagined with attention to detail, intentional sightlines, and effortless flow. Iconic mid-century bones spread across nearly 2,000 square feet of light-filled living space. The open living room greets you upon entry with a statement fireplace and light wood floors. This room flows into the kitchen, which features an impressive waterfall quartz island. It includes handcrafted white oak cabinetry with solid brass hardware, a six-burner professional range and French-door refrigeration, all framed by panoramic picture windows capturing golden-hour views. Next to the kitchen are a separate laundry room and powder room for guests. A wall of accordion glass doors in the kitchen leads to the backyard and pool, providing an indoor/outdoor California vibe. Adjacent to the kitchen, you transition into an entertainer's lounge with a custom wet bar, including built-in wine and ice storage. This space is multi-functional as a bonus dining room or a game room. The primary bedroom sanctuary at the rear of the home showcases vaulted ceilings with beams. It features a spacious walk-in closet and an en-suite bathroom with scalloped gold-and-white tile, a freestanding soaking tub, a dual-sink vanity, and a frameless glass dual rain shower. This home also offers two versatile guest bedrooms, with a full bath in the hallway. As you head into the backyard, you'll enjoy a private, terraced resort designed for outdoor living: take a dip in the sparkling pool with a tanning shelf and spa, rinse off in the wood-slat outdoor shower, or head up to the hillside fire pit and citrus tree as the city lights illuminate the horizon. The home is completed by an attached two-car garage and situated in the Los Angeles Unified School District served by Hillcrest Drive Elementary (0.5 mi), Audubon Middle School, and Dorsey High School, with convenient proximity to the renowned Baldwin Hills Elementary Pilot & Gifted Magnet. It is minutes from Kenneth Hahn State Recreation Area, the Culver City Arts District, Expo Light Rail, and Westside tech hubs. It is within a 30-minute drive of Downtown LA, LAX and SoFi Stadium. It offers a great central location for the 2028 Olympics and short-term rental potential.
