Property Description

Located on Wyton Drive in coveted Little Holmby, this masterful 1932 Spanish Colonial Revival features 4 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, plus Old-World architectural details including clay tile roofs, smooth plaster walls, cast concrete ornamentation and elaborate ironwork. The floor plan works beautifully for today with the majority of public rooms oriented towards the spacious rear garden.

In the entrance rotunda, gallery and living room, elaborately-carved and stenciled beams have been preserved along with original light fixtures, tile and iron work. The cathedral-inspired living room is drama personified featuring a stunning fireplace with impressive chimney breast, while three sets of French doors open to the patio and garden beyond. A lovely sunroom with corner fireplace, and the original Prohibition-era bar hidden behind discreet panels in the handsome library.

Down the approximate 40' long, French door-lined gallery and through hand-carved wood doors, a well-proportioned dining room is ideal for formal entertaining. Beyond is the breakfast room overlooking an enchanting dining loggia. The spacious kitchen, crowned with a groin-vaulted ceiling, is next to service rooms including a laundry and service yard. The original maid's quarters would function well as a private guest suite, staff quarters, or an at-home office. Nearby is direct access to the oversized double garage.

Up an elegantly-tiled staircase with wrought-iron balustrade, is the spacious master suite incorporating a generous bath, two dressing rooms, walk-in closet and a balcony with privileged views of Downtown Los Angeles. Two additional bedrooms, both featuring an abundance of closets, and a shared bath, complete the floor. One of the bedrooms also contains a private sleeping porch with views of the Hollywood Hills.

The backyard is optimum for entertaining and allows for one or many to take advantage of the enviable Southern California climate. Located in close proximity to UCLA, Westwood Village, prestigious shopping and dining, this home is served by the highly desirable Warner Avenue Elementary School. This is indeed a rare and extraordinary offering which is awaiting its next fortunate steward.
