Perched in the prestigious Pinecrest neighborhood, this 1964 Webster Wiley residence is a masterclass in mid-century design, offering a sophisticated retreat that feels worlds away from the city. Known as the 'balcony of Los Angeles,' this location captures the very best of La Crescenta living, where the air is crisp and the mountain views serve as a constant, breathtaking backdrop. The architecture celebrates the era's love for volume and light. Step through the double-door entry to find an expansive floor plan defined by a seamless connection to the outdoors. The heart of the home is an open-concept kitchen and lounge area, anchored by a classic stone fireplace and custom cabinetry--the perfect spot for slow mornings or hosting friends. Just beyond a formal dining room spans into the front-facing living room with picture windows framing the surrounding greenery of the neighborhood. The layout is thoughtfully designed for a modern lifestyle. Two secondary bedrooms feature paneled, vaulted ceilings and share a well-appointed bathroom with direct yard access--a brilliant feature for rinsing off after a day in the water. Tucked away at the rear for ultimate privacy, the primary suite offers a generous ensuite with double sinks and a serene atmosphere. Life here centers around the elements. The backyard is a private sanctuary, featuring a sparkling pool and spa framed by mature landscaping and starry skies. Whether you're enjoying al fresco dinners on the patio or watching the sunset paint the sky, the outdoor space invites you to slow down and breathe. With easy access to the boutiques and dining in Montrose and the hiking trails of the Crescenta Valley, this is more than a house; it's a lifestyle for those who value architectural integrity and a deep connection to nature. All in a community with top-rated schools and easy access to all that Los Angeles has to offer.
