Descrizione
The residence was designed by the famous Art Nouveau architect William Kesling. The Los Angeles County Appraiser first visited the Estes residence on February 10, 1936 and registered it as a newly built "modernist" house with a "special" quality of construction, which at that time was the highest of its kind. Renovated in 2002 by Mills Studio, the house now serves as one of the most unique architectural complexes in the city. The classic aerodynamic design is the hallmark of the timeless exterior. The incredibly bright living room boasts original oak floors, an elegant curved fireplace and rounded steel casement windows overlooking the lush surrounding Hollywood hills. A large dining area with cork flooring opens onto a sharp and refined backyard that includes an ascending spiral staircase leading to a rooftop deck with built-in benches and rectangular light portals, ideal for entertaining and having drinks with friends. Across an elegant bridge is a large master bedroom consisting of a potential media room or office with large closets and a Murphy bed, and on the other side is a bedroom with a huge shower and a rotating floating door that opens to a brand new outdoor hot tub. A remarkable interweaving of ageless and modern architecture, at the back of the house is an avant-garde entertainment venue with an indoor metal hearth and a floating bubble chair. Under the main building there is a private studio with a separate entrance, a spacious kitchen, a bathroom and a mini-split system, ideal for guests or additional income. A detached garage for 1 car is ideal for a workspace, office or gym. Each window in the house is an array of nature framed by clear architectural styles that merge together, creating an impression unlike any other in the city. Recent updates include a new roof in 2021, a renovated bathroom, quartz kitchen countertops and more. An incredible opportunity for a rare inheritance transfer.
