Secluded villa in an urban setting.

The house features a glamorous "Old Hollywood" double-height living room with a library balcony. Beamed ceilings, arches and leaded-glass windows abound, along with timely updates creating a unique juxtaposition of old and new. Dual staircases lead you to 3 bedrooms and two bathrooms upstairs, as well as a 30' balcony offering downtown skyline views. The first floor has a fourth bedroom, office and ensuite bath. There is a finished 250 square feet. bonus room beneath the living room. A deck surrounds the house, and there is room to put in a pool. Known as 'The House of a Thousand Years", it is built completely of reinforced concrete. A very short walk to Griffith Park, the Metro and to shops/cafes on Vermont and Hillhurst.
