The Highland Estates is a one-of-a-kind Zen-like gated community featuring (3) Craftsman and Victorian duplex bungalows, consisting of 6 units, all nestled in the foothills of the Hollywood Hills yet offering the convenience of a central Hollywood location. Built between 1912 and 1915, this classic bungalow community is an early Hollywood living at its best. Each Craftsman and Victorian bungalow exudes outstanding Golden Era architecture and resides among a lush garden community courtyard with a large deck, sauna, and cold shower. Patios are nestled among tropical flora and fauna. The 16,874 SF expansive resort-like lot features private and perfectly manicured gardens, lush foliage, and tall mature trees. Each bright and spacious unit with cathedral-style windows features hardwood floors, elaborate moldings, exposed beams, ornate ceilings, and a fireplace. A remodel of each unit was completed several years ago with strict attention to retaining the authentic integrity and character of each bungalow. Modern updates include central air, heating, washer and dryer, and new kitchen appliances. The Highland Estates are nestled at the base of the Hollywood Hills, north of Hollywood Blvd. and Highland Ave. The property's strategic location offers compelling fundamentals, abundant entertainment and dining amenities, and convenient access to major Hollywood employers. The Highland Estates offer the best of both worlds - an eclectic and vintage living experience that transports residents out of LA while being close to the hustle and bustle of city life. 1908 Hillcrest is a part of the Golden Era Collection, four impeccably restored multifamily complexes in prime Los Angeles locations.
This property is $4.5M more than the Median Sold Price and $155/SqFt more than other homes in Los Angeles, CA.
