Property Description

Price Reduced! Landmark Arts & Crafts home in the sought-after West Adams's Gramercy Park pocket enclave.

Check. Stained glass windows? Check. Terraces and sleeping porch? Check. Hardwood floors and beautifully-refinished woodwork? Check. Built-ins including seat benches, leaded-glass china cabinet and bookcases? Check. With over 5,000 square feet of high quality entertaining and living quarters on three levels (plus additional bonus attic space possible media room or?), this residence offers both curb appeal and move-in perfection. The massive entry porch leads into an imposing center entry hall with a grand, multi-landing staircase artfully backed by full wall of stained glass windows. The entry is flanked by the dining room and the living room, each with its own art tile fireplace. The living room also features a unique circular bay with curved glass windows. Through the pocket doors, the adjacent library has another fireplace, a bank of windows, wainscoting, and two walls of built-in bookcases. The dining room features leaded glass transom windows, beamed ceilings, twin china cabinets and wainscoting; French doors lead to a bright breakfast room that also has leaded glass transoms and wainscoting. The kitchen area includes an open walk-in pantry with plentiful storage and a separate wet bar area, along with a built-in oven and cooktop that includes an indoor grill. Upstairs, the second floor features four good-sized bedrooms (two with fireplaces), two full bathrooms and a luxe sleeping porch/sitting room. The largest bedroom (NW) has its own entrance to the huge terrace above the front entrance porch. The west facing-bedroom has French doors opening to its own separate terrace. On the third floor are two more bedrooms, another bathroom and almost 600 square feet of unfinished attic space. There is also a 400-sq-ft basement and a detached garage. The property is a Contributor to the West Adams Terrace HPOZ, and is individually designated as City of Los Angeles Historic Cultural Monument "HCM" No. 601 as the "Gramercy Park Homestead." It stands proudly at the entrance to Gramercy Park, an 18-home Tract that boasts a small private park (maintained by the neighborhood association) at its center. BONUS: This property has been used for filming quite often, which could be a nice source of additional income to a new owner. The Gramercy Park Homestead is conveniently located near the 10 freeway and the many new restaurants, coffee houses and other amenities along Adams Boulevard and in nearby neighborhoods, including Surfas Culinary District, Johnny's West Adams, Truffle Brother's Spaccia Salumeria (recently named by Yelp as L.A.'s "Best Italian" restaurant), Alta Adams, Tartine West Adams, Farmhouse Thai, Re/Creation Cafe and n/soto. And, of course, old school favorites El Cholo Cafe and Harold & Belle's.
