Property Description

Newly Redone Wood Floors give this Grand Dame a wonderfully fresh feel! Located in the perfect spot on Thayer, one of Westwood's most popular avenues, is this authentic, unspoiled Spanish gem, steeped in the architectural splendor of the day bathed in natural light at every turn.

True to its 1929 roots, details like high ceilings with prominent crown moldings, large picture windows, romantic, airy verandas and hardwood flooring make this house a true home, perfect for the purist who knows how good it feels to be surrounded by fine architecture. As one of its many "wow!" features, this stately home commands stunning vistas of the distant hillscape, of the city lights and of the Wilshire Corridor in the distance.

The floor plan is terrific; downstairs is a formal, center-hall entry flanked by a dramatic and spacious living room with tall ceilings and a fireplace. Step up to a large formal dining room, sweet breakfast room and big, square kitchen. A spacious deck accessed here is perfect for al fresco entertaining while enjoying the dramatic views. A fifth bedroom and bath completes the first level and can easily be used as an office, den or housekeeper's room. Upstairs there are four very large bedrooms with uncharacteristically large walk-in closets and dressing areas.

The backyard is very open and grand with a large sun deck, grassy knoll, patio spaces and a huge brick fireplace. Framed by mature landscape and more deck space is the sparkling swimmer's pool. A bathhouse with dual showers, dressing rooms and bathroom complete the backyard area and as a bonus, there is some undeveloped space adjacent to the bathhouse with wonderful potential to be an open all-weather outdoor living area.

Creature comforts include a newer central air conditioning and heating system.

All of this is centrally located in the coveted Warner Avenue School district, offering close proximity to UCLA, shopping, movies and dining.
