There are so many stunning homes in The Bird Streets that I know that all of my rich kids would love that I could blog exclusively about this neighborhood all day long and never get tired of it! Since I haven’t showcased a home in this area for a while, I thought I would offer you a refresher course on The Bird Streets. This uber chic neighborhood off of Doheny, north of Sunset is some of the most sought after and prized real estate in all of Los Angeles. Named after, you guessed it…birds… these streets feature some of the best views and high profile residents in the city. You will pay a premium to fly with this flock, but for the rich kid with no limits there are few better placed to call home.
Today’s Hot Prop is a stunning redone mid century set on a lot with extensive landscaping and foliage for ultimate privacy, yet not overpowering the the extensive views that span from city lights to the ocean (on a very clear day). What I really love about this home is the open floor plan with floor to ceiling windows throughout. It gives you that indoor/outdoor feeling from every room. Although I am not a huge fan of marble, when used tastefully, can provide for a super swank effect. If you have ever viewed the townhomes at my listing on Croft, The Luminaire, you will understand what I mean. I love the contrast of the large carrara marble fireplace with the dark hardwood floors and white beamed ceilings. The entire house screams minimalist chic, allowing the house to speak for itself without being overpowered by large fixtures and overly done kitchens/bathrooms. When you step outside to the massive deck, it’s almost as if you are in treehouse (albeit a very expensive one), while you look out to views of the city. You can tell that the owner has exquisite taste and an extreme pride of ownership with every detail carefully thought out.
