    Tucked away in the storied enclave of Whitley Heights, this enchanting Hollywood Hills residence is wrapped in lush greenery and timeless charm. Elegant herringbone brickwork winds through lush landscaping and leads to the open concept living room where rich wood flooring and window frames pair with arched doorways and a wood burning fireplace, evoking a warm and whimsical ambiance. The living room flows freely into the dining room which looks out onto greenery through a large arched picture window. The updated kitchen features generous storage, custom cabinetry and stainless steel appliances, including a professional-grade Thermador range, and a Bosch dishwasher. The oversized primary bedroom boasts soaring vaulted ceilings, built-in cabinetry, an inviting en-suite bath and sliding glass doors that open to a bamboo garden. The spacious second bedroom offers built in shelving and more sliding glass doors to the outdoor dining. Step outside to your own private sanctuary- a wisteria-draped pergola, tranquil fountain, and abundant succulent landscaping with uplighting and cafe lights create a serene setting for entertaining or unwinding. A gorgeous guest bath with jacuzzi on the main level and an office with separate access on the lower level complete the home. Additional highlights include dimmable halogen lighting throughout, central HVAC, a speaker system in the ceilings of most rooms, a 1 car garage, laundry/hobby room with LG washer/dryer, large attic with plentiful storage and additional off-street parking for two vehicles, including parking at the same level of the front door for easy groceries transport. Ideally located near Runyon Canyon and the Hollywood Reservoir, and just moments from acclaimed restaurants, the Hollywood Bowl and the famed Hollywood Farmers' Market, this hillside hideaway offers the best of Hollywood living.
