MidCenturyModern

Perched atop the hills of Silver Lake, with a large swimming pool and spectacular views of downtown LA, this exquisitely remodeled mid-century offers the best in privacy and casual elegance on the east side. On a massive 3-parcel 23,000+ sqft landscaped lot, and with indoor-outdoor living at top of mind, this Barbara Bestor-designed home is a light-filled, expansive hilltop escape. Through the gated garden pathway, the oversized front door opens to a bright foyer, with sight lines to the hills. The large living room features a wall of sliding doors to the backyard, flanking a fireplace, with a generous dining space and built-in bar. An open kitchen with a giant island afford plenty of space to cook and entertain, with a built-in breakfast nook and an adjacent TV room nearby. Past a powder room, additional wood-paneled den space, and laundry room, the sleeping quarters are entered through a skylit hallway, leading to two bedrooms, two baths, and a primary suite. With two closets, a bathroom, and sliding doors to an outdoor patio, the primary boasts views of the pool and hillsides beyond. The magnificent backyard features a large pool, dining and lounge areas, as well as an original brick outdoor fireplace. Down an enchanting pathway, past raised veggie beds, a detached structure offers a large office space and a garage with room for parking. The property continues to delight, with hidden play areas, lookout points, and more.
