Description

Set on over an acre in La Canada's prestigious Alta Canyada neighborhood, this 1925 Spanish Colonial Revival was originally designed by lauded Los Angeles architect Arthur Rolland Kelly. In its most recent incarnation, the home has undergone an extensive renovation that maintains its character while realizing its true potential. Its coveted setting offers city and ocean views that stretch past the downtown LA skyline all the way to Catalina. These sweeping vistas are visible from much of the interior, through the broad picture windows and glass doors that line the home. 5027 Louise was designed to accommodate a joyous crowd: the living room includes built-in surround sound (with a stealthily disguised media cabinet) and flows out onto a covered patio and toward the kitchen, with its breakfast nook, breakfast bar, and original built-in corner hutches. The kitchen is lively with natural light reflecting off the marble counters and a matching suite of Thermador appliances including a double oven. For added convenience, there's a half bath and a separate laundry room with butcher block counters, an ironing station, and a glut of storage space just off the kitchen. But the piece de resistance is the dining room's trifold glass doors that transform the space into an inspiring indoor-outdoor experience, making your dinner parties, sunrise coffee, and sunset cocktails unmatched. Upstairs offers three bedrooms, two of which feature their own balconies, and a luxe en-suite bedroom that could be used as the primary. Downstairs you'll find an additional en-suite primary with built-in shelving, hidden wine storage, dual walk-in closets with custom built-ins, designer wallpaper, and french doors to the yard. The bathrooms have been thoughtfully designed with handmade zellige and marble tiles from Cle tile, designer fixtures throughout, and a steam shower in the upstairs primary. One third of the detached three-car garage has been converted to a studio/ office with a three-quarter bath; the current detached two-car garage offers an upgraded panel and EV charger. The generous grounds have also been considerably enhanced with lush drought-tolerant landscaping, all new fencing, orange, Meyer lemon, grapefruit, lime, mandarin, fig and pomegranate trees, a greenhouse so you can continue the growth, and a hot tub for when you want to soak in the view.
