Time Travel. Looking up at the building you know you are somewhere fantastical and this unit doesn't disappoint. Designed in 1963 by Architect and educator Ray Kappe, the home's renovations have been done in keeping with, and with respect to Mr. Kappe's legacy. Two story floor to ceiling glass, nine foot ceilings, restored wood surfaces, and period appropriate Mid-Century Modern textures and fixtures all fuel the genre. From the spacious living room and secret half bath, step up to cork floored dining and kitchen, and venture out to the large outdoor lower patio. Upstairs, the versatile first bedroom/loft is the nucleus of the home, sharing the spectacular view while providing a space for creating, work, sleep or just lounging. The main bath (redone in 2019) features the original separate but integrated bathtub and shower design, and lots of counter/cabinet space. Finishing off the interior is the primary bedroom with a large closet and fabulous shag (per Mr. Kappe, ) private covered bedroom patio, and walkway leading to the pool. Neighborhood close to dining and entertainment, the home is freeway convenient to the studios, Valley and all your favorite places in LA. Come see why Ray Kappe is such a beloved part of Los Angeles Architectural history.
