This ultra-cool Spanish located in one of Eagle Rock's finest neighborhoods has so much to offer. Designed by architects March, Karoly & Schwartz, this single-level jewel was built in 1926 & has not been on the market in 54 years. Listed in historicplacesla.org as a District Contributor of the Dahlia Drive Residential Historic District, this property MIGHT be a candidate for the Mills Act. A savvy buyer might first apply for official designation as a Contributor to the District, then apply for the Mills Act, which, if accepted, could result in substantial SAVINGS on the annual property tax bill. Truly a rare find, the home is architecturally intact & overflowing w/ unique original detail. It begins w/ the impressive 120-foot frontage, a walled front garden & multi-leveled, clay tiled roof lines which create substantial curb appeal. Upon entering the home, you will be transported. The simple beauty of the creamy stucco, hardwood floors & thick walls contrasted with arched entries, high ceilings & large picture windows create a dramatic effect. The 'tower' detail is the round breakfast room. These elements create the feeling of an intimate home, yet the spacious formal rooms give it the capacity to entertain large groups. The 23,950 sq ft lot, much relatively flat, part hillside (at the rear of the lot) offers an opportunity to create your own Shangri-la. The garden possibilities are endless & would take this home to the next level. Picture the multi-level destination possibilities.... enchanting garden 'rooms' are just waiting to be created. A mini citrus orchard or tiny vineyard, trickling Moroccan style fountain, shady secret garden or a Tunisian- inspired hidden patio all come to mind. Perhaps stairs leading to a deck, designed to take in breezy views of the Rock & DTLA from the top of the hill. The kitchen & showers were remodeled in approx 2004/2005. Though single level, there is one step down in the living room. Two-car garage + plenty of parking in the driveway. Located in the desirable Dahlia Heights Elementary School area, this block of Dahlia Drive is delightfully sleepy yet so close to amenities such as Trader Joe's, Cindy's Restaurant, Found Coffee & more. The authenticity of this special home + location, location, location make for a winning combination. (Buyers to verify all, as listing agent & sellers cannot guarantee the accuracy of these recommendations or acceptance into the Mills Act program.)
