    What's special

    Perched above the Sunset Strip, this beautifully updated mid-century modern retreat captures sweeping city lights, lush hillside views, and glimpses of the Pacific from a private Hollywood Hills setting. Soaring ceilings, walls of glass, and abundant natural light create an exceptional sense of scale, while recent updates enhance the home's timeless architecture and effortless livability. The open-concept living and dining areas flow seamlessly to an expansive entertaining deck with a fireplace, creating the perfect indoor-outdoor setting for relaxing or hosting. Below, a private landscaped yard with mature greenery and a tranquil rock waterfall offers additional space to unwind and enjoy the California lifestyle. The chef's kitchen features stone countertops, custom cabinetry, and premium appliances, opening naturally to the main living spaces. The spacious primary suite includes dual walk-in closets, a spa-like bath with a soaking tub overlooking the treetops, and direct access to the serene backyard. Two additional en-suite bedrooms provide comfort and privacy, while a flexible bonus room is ideal for a home office, gym, or creative studio. Additional highlights include Fleetwood sliding doors, hardwood floors, custom porcelain tile, a two-car garage with 220V outlet, and integrated security with alarm and video surveillance. Blending iconic mid-century design with modern updates, generous outdoor living, and spectacular views, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy one of the Hollywood Hills' most sought-after settings just moments from the Sunset Strip.
