About this home
Located in Nichols Canyon, with breathtaking hillside views, this 1960 post-and-beam home has been expertly renovated and restored by Chris Salay and sits on a fully gated, fenced corner lot, landscaped to perfection. The home features 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, a detached lower studio with its own full bathroom, and 510 square feet of finished storage space. Set just below the iconic Lautner Garcia House, the home's architectural elements include dramatic pitched ceilings, imported cork flooring, terrazzo-tiled bathrooms, custom-built-ins throughout, and floor-to-ceiling windows in the main living space that frame wide mountain vistas. Private, serene, and impeccably designed, the home offers idyllic canyon living. Beyond the secure front gate, the home opens to reveal its classic post-and-beam structure on full display. Striking vaulted ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows with windowed doors lead to a long upper deck with unobstructed, panoramic hillside views. A center brick fireplace anchors the main living space, separating the dining area from the formal living room. The living room and adjacent den offer separate areas for hosting and relaxation, both with custom built-in shelving. The kitchen features custom-built dark wood cabinetry that complements the home's architectural style. The top-of-the-line appliance suite includes a Sub-Zero refrigerator, a Thermador beverage column, a Bosch dishwasher, and a Dacor gas range. Three bedrooms and two full bathrooms are situated down the hallway. The primary suite feels like its own wing, complete with a sitting area, custom fluted-wood built-ins, and sliding doors that open to a private deck with hillside views and a coveted peek at the Garcia House. The ensuite bath layers imported terrazzo flooring with Rosso marble tile, dual sinks, a soaking tub, and a shower. Two additional bedrooms share a bathroom finished with imported terrazzo floors, marble tile, Walnut wallpaper, and a custom wood vanity - equal parts playful and polished. Downstairs, a fully detached, oxblood-drenched studio - the paint color selected by AD100 interior designer Jake Arnold - features imported cork flooring and its own bathroom, offering a versatile space as guest quarters, office, gym, or screening room. An adjacent expansive storage area adds an exceptional amount of storage rarely found in homes in this area. The terraced, street-to-street lot, landscaped by Andrea Scharff, unfolds with citrus trees, a fully fenced yard, walking paths, and a large grassy area for recreation and play. An attached two-car garage with EV charger completes the lower level. Upgrades include Nest thermostats, a newer Miele washer and dryer, an ultra-pure alkaline drinking water system, custom Mod Barn built-in cabinetry and closets, Nest security cameras, Aiphone video intercom, reinforced balcony support, and newly installed landscape lighting - thoughtful enhancements that support the architecture without distracting from it. Just moments from Runyon Canyon and minutes to Hollywood, West Hollywood, and Studio City, this gated mid-century retreat offers privacy, provenance, and that unparalleled Nichols Canyon ease of living - a true refuge in the heart of Los Angeles....
