Huge Reduction and a Huge Lot Opportunity! The ultimate creative retreat on an enormous flat lot down a private lane! This artist's oasis from the famed mid-century architectural studio of Craig Ellwood features a light-filled 3 bed/2 bath mid-mod home on a huge 9,003 sq ft tree-lined lot. Part of "The Place", a unique enclave of 5 post & beam homes built for 5 pioneering artists in the 1950s, this wonderful property is a surprising retreat from the Westside world all around. Soaring beamed ceilings, clerestory windows, custom French doors & windows frame 125 mature trees outside. Golden hardwood floors, recessed lighting, generous open plan design with huge art walls and plenty of space for indoor/outdoor living, dining & entertaining in style. Spacious cook's kitchen w/wraparound breakfast bar, new stainless appliances and huge custom pantry opens to the sun-filled slate patio and endless expanses of green. Peaceful primary suite w/walk-in closet, secluded patio, spa bath w/dual sinks, double shower, deep jetted tub & skylight. Two more sunny bedrooms/home office and full bath on the west wing of the expansive floor plan. Dramatic walls of glass & French doors open to a lush yard surrounded by towering queen palms, Eugenia, pittosporum, banana, yucca, eucalyptus and Italian cypress trees. Enormous roof deck up a circular staircase perches you high above it all for treetop entertaining, spectacular sunsets and ocean breezes from the west. Just a few blocks to the famed Oval Streets/Beverly Hills of Mar Vista, Sunday Farmers Market, hipster cafes and top-rated restaurants. This is not the Inglewood Blvd you think you know. A bit of Venice, a touch of Topanga...you probably haven't seen this pocket of original Mar Vista before. Come and be enchanted by this wonderful secret artist's colony!
