Some houses you buy for the square footage; this one you buy to live with nature without leaving Los Angeles. Perched on half an acre where the Santa Monica Mountains meet the Los Angeles skyline, this Hollywood Hills retreat sits on a rare nine-home cul-de-sac, surrounded by protected open space ensuring permanent privacy, moments from Mulholland Drive, Hollywood Bowl, Runyon Canyon, and major studios. The floor plan is filled with natural light from floor-to-ceiling windows and French doors that open directly onto nearly 1,700 sq ft of connected outdoor living spaces. Inside: refinished oak floors, built-ins, in-ceiling speakers and EV charging in the garage. Step outside and have coffee on the redwood deck or succulent patio garden shaded by an established canopy of oak, elm, and walnut. Stroll to an elevated Mediterranean terrace with built-in fire pit, hot tub, and spa-like redwood outdoor shower. A sweeping California native hillside garden leads up to a mature orchard of fig, citrus, pomegranate, and guava with six raised beds, all on smart irrigation. Whether you're harvesting dinner from the garden, waking up to an outdoor shower with city views, or unwinding to the sound of crickets from the hot tub, this property is a home where you live worlds away in a part of Los Angeles most people never find.
