8914 Cynthia St. in West Hollywood sits on historic land once subdivided by the visionary Mrs. Elizabeth Schwall, one of the area's pioneering landowners and developers. Constructed in 1905, this charming residence honors her legacy while embracing modern comforts. The main house, with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, retains original hardwood floors and two fireplaces, along with a generous back deck shaded by mature podocarpus, bamboo, and tipu trees. A vast basement provides abundant storage. Set on an unusually large 5,386-square-foot lot nearly double the typical 3,000 square feet in the neighborhood, this property offers extra outdoor space for creative use. Every system has been diligently maintained and updated, from the foundation and plumbing to electrical, roof, and smart home features including Tesla solar panels and a 3-zone HVAC system with Ecobee thermostats. Above the 3-car garage, the modern 1-bedroom, 1-bath guest house features its own deck, A/C, laundry, walk-in closet, bonus space, and an elevator for easy access. Additional upgrades include a 40-amp EV charger, smart-controlled gates, and comprehensive drainage systems. Just one block from the Sunset Strip and Santa Monica Blvd, and protected under the Mills Act for tax savings, this home marries timeless heritage with forward-thinking innovation.
