This is definitely your quintessential rock and roll, Sunset Strip bachelor pad. Located on Larrabee, just west of Sunset Plaza, you are literally a short stroll from everything that the Strip has to offer. What I liked about this unit is that it feels high quality: dark hardwood floors, very cool kitchen with chrome accented back splashes, updated bathrooms, and well proportioned bedrooms. Apparently it’s owned by some sort of rock star and this becomes clear when you see the stripper pole that has been installed in the living room next to the wet bar area. Putting all of that aside, I think this place has a ton of potential. I would say that this unit is best suited for a party boy/girl who likes to sleep in late or a tortured artist who thrives in dark environments. There is very little natural light in the unit. I think this could be somewhat remediated by clearing out the shrubbery that is outside of the balconies, but even with that, I would still expect minimal light. The location and the unit itself are really what makes this a Hot Prop. Once the furniture is cleared out and a little sparkle is added by a thorough deep cleaning, I think you’d have yourself a very nice place to call home. In my humble opinion, the unit is priced high, but could be a great deal in the $650-$700K. I’m not sure if you can put a price on the stripper pole, but this may be an amenity vs. an obstacle to many of my rich kids out there! Shauna Sand - if you are reading my blog, this pad’s for you!
