2160 Estes Rd, Los Angeles, CA 90041

Tucked behind a stylish wood fence, this thoughtfully updated 1959-built home is a true midcentury retreat perched above Eagle Rock. Sited at the top of Estes Road, a peaceful cul-de-sac in the desirable hills north of Colorado Boulevard, there are stunning views from east to west across the Eagle Rock Valley. Once inside the gate, the home sits down the long driveway, completely hidden from the street. The floor plan was made for entertaining - an entry leads into the open dining area and kitchen, separated from the living room by a double fireplace. Sliding Fleetwood doors open up the entire space to the landscaped backyard and views beyond. Refinished maple wood floors and freshly painted walls create a bright backdrop for the natural light to play throughout each room. The kitchen was completely renovated with custom-built cabinets with soft-close doors, large center island with marble countertop, Bertazzoni appliances, downdraft vent hood, California Faucet Company fixture, and an incredible amount of storage. Every detail was thought out to maximize the space, from the pull out drawers in the cabinets to the spice drawer next to the cooktop to the hot water dispenser at the sink. The breakfast nook looks out over treetops and hills on both sides and features a built-in bench made of ash wood. Two bedrooms and a three-quarter hall bath sit on the eastern side of the house, while the primary suite sits on the other end, with mature bamboo creating a tranquil view outside the sliding door and a spa-like bath attached. The lush backyard is where the relaxing nature of this home really sets in. Gather around the gas fire pit as the stars come out, or watch the birds dip in and out of the custom fountain, all with the expansive view as a meditative backdrop. On over 12,000 sq. ft. of land, this secluded property is a peaceful paradise where the cares of everyday life just drift away.
