Description

Featured in Architectural Digest in 2023, this showpiece mid-century home in the Los Feliz Estates has expertly integrated indoor/outdoor flow, cascading windows that allow abundant light, and high-end designer materials and finishes to enhance the home's original geometric 1960s framework. Originally built by architects Johnston & D'Agostino in 1963, then rebuilt and redesigned in 2018 by architecture and interior design firm And And And Studio, with landscape architecture and design completed by AD100 Landscape Design Firm Terremoto, 5206 Los Bonitos is the epitome of California living. The home's heart is the step-down living room bordered by majestic clerestory windows, visible from the front and back of the house, lending a sense of nostalgia to the high-design home. A white brick fireplace extends to the sawtooth ceiling. Fleetwood windowed doors allow an unobstructed view of the backyard, with expertly curated landscape and hardscape surrounding a romantic pool. Poured white terrazzo flooring extends through the main living space, a nod to the home's original era, with white oak flooring in each bedroom. Surrounding the living room are a library, den, and dining area, all with impeccable white oak millwork and built-in shelving and cabinetry. From the den and library, a front atrium with sculptural plantings is framed by large windows--a serene backdrop for relaxation and leisure. The simple and subtle kitchen features abundant cabinetry as well as a center island with white stone countertops, white oak siding, a built-in sink, and bar seating. Top-of-the-line appliances include a Wolf range, a Sub-Zero refrigerator and freezer, and a Miele dishwasher, rendering the kitchen as functional as it is chic. Each bathroom is colorful and impeccably crafted. One bathroom is covered in custom-fired mint DTile squares, featured on the walls, vanity, and inlaid into the sink. The second bathroom is a color study in pink, with Norwegian rose marble floors and countertops. The primary suite bathroom features dual sinks with Waterworks fixtures, a terrazzo soaking tub, and patterned Inax wall tile. Curated designer lighting elevates every room, with Louis Poulsen fixtures gracing the kitchen and bedroom, Atelier de Troupe pendants, Michael Anastassiades sconces in the primary bathroom, Lambert & Fils chandeliers in the dining and primary bedrooms, and Flos wall sconces in the secondary bathrooms. The backyard is a sanctuary, with mature California-native planting throughout, poured concrete, a grassy area, and a gorgeous pool and spa bordered by hedging. Beautiful views of cascading palm trees frame the impeccable yard, with the Griffith Observatory in close view from the spa. Other notable elements include: refinished two-car garage with skylights; mud room; new sewer, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical; and, purchased solar panels. Ideally located in the Los Feliz Estates, just a short distance to Griffith Park, the Greek Theatre, and Hillhurst and Vermont Avenues' trendy bars, restaurants, and shops, this peaceful retreat is a private sanctuary in the heart of Los Feliz. A space imagined by top architects and designers of our time, don't miss out on this rare opportunity to make this immaculate home your own.
