CHARM CHARM CHARM!
If you desire an astounding truly private home loaded with uniqueness, peace and quite than this IS your place! You’ll have your own private street entrance, private deck and chairs with trees willowing gently above, owls hoo’ing at night, hawks soaring above all day with the sunshine flowing all over your 23 foot long deck atop this magical hill in all points cool Silverlake, LA, well you’ll be living the dream. It’s basically CHATEAU MARMONT east.
C the proprietor, is very responsive, kind & very gentlemanly and truly let’s you be. The internet went a little wonky early on, we texted him, he had the cable company out here ASAP and upgraded the WiFi/cable tv pronto. His staff are warm easy going. If you need anything they will help!
There literally is a flowing stream behind the apartment surrounded by tall pine trees and gorgeous bamboo. If you open the windows you’ll love hearing the ambiance of water sounds cascading through your apartment. There are windows to open in every room. In the shower, in the bathrooms, near front door, in the kitchen and dramatic double French windows in the main room overlooking more beautiful trees across the street and down the hill looking toward Hollywood proper. AND the view from your deck of Hollywood is a rare, gorgeous perspective of of this town. The shimmering lights by night are truly beautiful and captivating.
It’s all high ceilings, the main room had an amazing old brass chandler & the lights to it and in the kitchen run from a main dimmer switch that lets you regulate your lighting mood. It’s incredible! Velvet red blackout curtains in living room- insanely cool, chic shower with super hot/cold water and tons of great pressure. A beautiful marble top is your kitchen counter- the tv works great and you get tons of channel, even dvr.
Tons of parking. FYI, every hill leading up to this hill top is steep. But, if you’re into walking or riding a bike you’ll adjust and enjoy it. If you’re driving, no big deal. We brought a bike and loved the challenge and thrill of going up and down.
Excellent drop off fluff & fold laundromat next to a totally delicious mexican joint with a big menu at the bottom of the hill. Drop your laundry off they’ll have it packed up in nice paper and tape folded precisely just the way you’d like it for a $1.60 a pound.
Erewon grocery (high end, cool vibes, quality x 10) just opened three months ago, really fun in there! Everything is here, Intelligensia, La Columbe, Sweetgreens, Kismet, Homestate, Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s, vintage stores and Vegan places and multiple juicers, liquor stores, cute clothing boutiques, insane bespoke donut shops! You can shop, stroll, eat everything. It’s a lot of downtown New York City/Brooklyn in this area. This is the area you always hear about being “bi-coastal” well, this is the place they’re talking about.
Trash/recycling trucks come Thursday mornings. Like any old place time to time it can get a bit chilly, so the remedy is a big heater you can roll out, and it’ll feel like the Sahara dessert in no time. It’s very quiet here, you’ll receive true deep sleep in a very comfy full size bed. Hardwood floors are a deep brown hue and well kept. Again the bathroom is insanely lovely and just like this old massive Hollywood home, you’ll be charmed by its mystic essences and gentle touches all carefully curated by C in his wonderland he has designed so you too can play in this Shangri-La via Los Angeles.
And since you’re high up on this beautiful hill, at night, you’ll see ALL the stars super clearly. Plus, out in the distance you can view airplanes on approach to LAX as they cross over downtown and you have a full view of the Staples Center with its full building illumination bouncing off all the other skyscrapers! It’s a light show.
