949 Stone Canyon Rd Los Angeles CA MLS #22-204203

Available for the first time in 55 years – stylish 1930’s traditional, presenting a rare opportunity, just moments from Hotel Bel Air in bucolic lower Stone Canyon, with close-in, East Gate access. A generous circular drive sets the stage to take this Grande Dame into her next decades. Great bones with a formal entry, gracious sweeping staircase, and a 3,250 sf center hall plan. Simply restore and renovate with the current plan intact, or take one of many approaches to expansion or redevelopment. Among the features, a spacious step-down formal living room with fireplace and high ceilings that opens through multiple French doors to the verdant 30,000 lot with pool, grassy lawn, seasonal stream and towering 100 year old sycamores. Other public spaces include a large formal dining room, breakfast room, powder room, sunroom/den, office/maids with adjacent bath, plus a full lower "basement" level which includes a finished billiards area with a bar and fireplace, plus multiple rooms/storage areas stretching below the entire footprint of the home. Upstairs includes a generous primary suite, two guest bedrooms with en suite baths. 4 bed, 3.5 bath in total. Completing the package are original peg and groove hardwood floors, detailed moulding and original wood sash double hung windows throughout. Not often do untouched homes with such history become available at this price point, in a prime location, with flat land, grace and potential. Refresh, restore or start anew.
