Perched on the crest of City Terrace, this one-of-a-kind modern gem offers an extraordinary blend of privacy, style, and panoramic beauty. From the moment you arrive, you're greeted by sweeping sunset vistas--and on a clear day, the sparkling silhouette of Catalina Island gracing the horizon. Step inside to discover tastefully designed interiors, where an updated gourmet kitchen becomes the heart of the home. Sleek finishes, ample counter space, and a chef's layout invite both casual meals and lively gatherings. The bathrooms have been thoughtfully refreshed, blending modern comfort with timeless charm.Beyond the interiors lies an entertainer's dream. Multiple outdoor living areas--from sun-kissed patios to shaded porches--offer endless possibilities for dining, lounging, and enjoying the gentle hillside breeze. Terraced yards bloom with nature's bounty: grapefruit, lime, lemon, mandarin, avocado, and fig trees, creating your own private orchard. A storage shed stands ready to serve as a home office, fitness studio, or creative space. Additional features include a 2-car detached garage with extra front parking, fenced yards for privacy, BBQ and picnic areas, and a children's play yard. The back patio has been enclosed and converted into a versatile bonus room, laundry room, and bath (completed without necessary permits).Perfectly positioned near City Terrace Park, and is just minutes from Downtown LA, LAC+USC Medical Center, Cal State LA, and East LA College, this home offers the rare combination of serene hilltop living and easy city access. Your hilltop sanctuary awaits--where every sunset feels like a private performance. Do not let this opportunity to pass you by!
