Finally, a turnkey designer remodel that actually feels like home. Perched in the Studio City hills, south of Ventura Blvd, this 1951 Mid-Century jewel box has been soulfully reimagined with the utmost integrity. Gated for privacy, the entryway is landscaped with CA native plantings on drip irrigation, and a glance past the side stairs gives you a preview of the stunning views from the balcony and nearly every room. A glass inset in the oversized custom solid acacia front door offers an inviting peek at the living room's rich walnut floors and exposed beams. The kitchen is both editorial and practical, with walnut cabinetry, dark granite countertops, deep azure tile, a Bertazzoni fridge, and a Thor range. A breakfast bar beneath the kitchen's broad picture window is the perfect spot to have your morning coffee, get some work done, lay out appetizers for guests, or help with homework. The upstairs bedroom boasts hillside views, exposed beams, and dual closets. Both bathrooms are synchronized without being identical, with custom vanities, earthy travertine countertops, and timeless terrazzo floors. The entire downstairs is dedicated to the primary suite, which includes a cozy reading nook, a very generous walk-in closet, and two sets of glass French doors that open out to a spacious balcony. All of the heavy lifting here has been done (new electrical, new plumbing, new roof, new windows, etc) and all of the design choices have been made with the way you live in mind. No opportunity for clean and streamlined storage has been overlooked, and the two-car garage has been finished as usable bonus space for an office, gym, or studio. 11541 Laurelcrest Dr is within the lauded Carpenter school district, and it's just up the hill from the Shops at Sportsmen's Lodge, Heavy Handed, Laurel Tavern, Black Market Liquor Bar, and an endless array of dining and shopping options along Ventura Blvd.
