Los Angeles, CA 90041 5074 Glen Iris Avenue

An architectural compound that includes a 3bd/2ba California Bungalow main home reimagined by architect Barbara Bestor in 2011, a spacious separate casita with full bath, and modern free-standing studio/office/gym. All well sited on a nearly 7,000 sf lot just a few steps away from Colorado Blvd. Enter to a dramatic open plan great room - with a welcoming living room featuring an exposed brick fireplace and bookshelf tucked to one side and a large dining area with a minimalist open stairway anchoring the other. The central hub and communal space of the house is its spacious and light flooded kitchen. The architect created an island out of old-growth Douglas fir and surrounded it with custom cabinets and open shelving. This is a space that you might actually recognize, as the current owners have cultivated an ongoing commercial location business that has generated significant income via film and print campaigns. Stunning vertical grain douglas fir flooring is laid throughout, with liberal use of wooden paneling and tongue and groove ceilings accented with the architect's intelligent and simple solutions for lighting and storage. A large upstairs family room is accessed via the open stairway. In the primary bedroom with en suite bath, a vaulted and wood-paneled ceiling creates a unique and distinctive space. The centrally placed second bedroom is currently used as an office. The 3rd bedroom is painted a playful yellow and features a built-in seating nook as well as a clever moveable shelf to conceal a secret pass-through to the center bed closet. A Dutch door leads to the secluded garden with a covered patio, well-designed areas of planting, and space remaining for a potential future pool. The casita features cathedral ceilings, accordion glass doors that open to the yard, and a full bath. Other updates include seller-owned solar panels, newer water softener, tankless water heater, Tesla and Electric vehicle chargers, Alarm System, Smart System with energy-efficient lights, Smart Sprinkler system, and Polk outdoor speakers throughout the backyard. A rare opportunity in a calm Eagle Rock location within a highly desired school district. Offers are due April 2nd at 5 pm.
