Spectacularly preserved and meticulously updated, this rare 1920s gem was designed by esteemed architect Robert Farquhar. It is undoubtedly one of the most notable homes on the iconic Rossmore Avenue. Rossmore is filled with old Hollywood history, and it runs directly through the quaint Hancock Park neighborhood. Although the location is smack-dab in the middle of Los Angeles, the homes in Hancock Park have collectively created a picturesque enclave. This 7,000-square-foot Tudor home includes five bedrooms and a whopping eight bathrooms. Located at 201 N Rossmore Ave, Los Angeles, this property is priced at $8,995,000 and is listed by Alejandro Lombardo and Roberto Seixas at Keller Williams Downtown LA.
Upon entering the home, the front door opens into a striking living room with 15-foot ceilings. The exposed beams and diamond Tudor windows add to the visible character of the space. The living room leads into the family room and dining area, where the design balances designated spaces with an open-concept floor plan. The effortless, airy flow is intended for both intimate and large-scale entertaining.
The herringbone floors continue into the kitchen, which is otherwise the most modern room in the house. The cooking space has been completely reimagined, now boasting state-of-the-art appliances and a layout perfect for both culinary enthusiasts and those who enjoy hosting. A dark marble kitchen island is the centerpiece of the space, creating a contemporary focal point.
The main level features a spacious guest bedroom with a private en-suite bath, offering both comfort and privacy for visitors. Adjacent is a practical and well-organized laundry room, optimized for convenience. The ground floor also offers direct access to the attached garage, making entry and exit both easy and efficient.
The striking high ceilings are also present in the primary suite. The master space also includes a fireplace and a serene seating area. In addition, there are dual spa-inspired bathrooms. The suite is completed with ample closet space and extensive storage options.
Three additional en-suite bedrooms, each featuring their own fireplace, offer a perfect blend of comfort and luxury. These thoughtfully designed spaces ensure both warmth and privacy, creating an inviting retreat for family members or guests. The individual fireplaces enhance the cozy atmosphere, making each room a private sanctuary.
The exterior of the property directly reflects the modern upgrades. It has been transformed into a calming, oasis-like space with plenty of amenities. The newly added pool and spa offer a tranquil escape from the surrounding city. There are multiple spaces for gathering, including the fireplace, barbecue loggia, and a plethora of seating areas.
The home overlooks the lush green lawn of the Wilshire Country Club golf course, reminding residents of the exclusivity of the neighborhood. This property is located in a Historic Preservation Overlay Zone (HPOZ), further enhancing its historical significance and charm. The future owners will be a part of Hancock Park history.
