Description
Set among numerous estate properties on one of Little Holmby's premiere streets, this traditional gem represents a unique opportunity to experience the best of this highly coveted neighborhood at a modest investment. Refreshed and renovated by the present owner, the home is move-in ready with modern appeal but still incorporates classic details of warm wood floors, timeless crown moldings, splendid wainscoting and diamond lattice windows. The unique split-level floor plan offers the best of both formal and casual living. The ground level leads from a gracious entry to a spacious formal living room with a grand fireplace creating a convivial environment perfect for lavish formal entertaining with your many friends and family. Up half a flight of stairs is a more causal layout infused with light including a large open family room/dining area, with extensive built-in shelving ready for all your books or entertainment equipment, adjoining eat-in cook's kitchen with newer appliances including Sub-Zero plus a cozy breakfast area, elegant powder room, and convenient guest or maid's room with full bath.

Access to the private yard, perfect for relaxing or entertaining on a warm summer evening, is off the living/dining area through numerous French doors and boasts several sitting areas, play space for young family members and an upper fenced pool area. Additional features include direct access garage, newer systems and alarm. Beyond all its outstanding features, the house is moments away from the relaxing atmosphere at Holmby park, the world-class shopping at Century City Westfield mall, the glamour of Beverly Hills, the vibrant nightlife of West Hollywood, and the cultural offerings of UCLA/Westwood and access to the prestigious, award-winning Warner Avenue Elementary School.
