Tucked into the foothills of Mt. Washington, 1942 Kemper seamlessly blends mid-century elegance and chic cabin vibes into a magical 2 bed+ office / 1.5 bath refuge in one of Los Angeles's most sought-after neighborhoods. From the front door, find yourself in a living room where rich wood-paneled walls accent bright beamed ceilings and enormous picture windows bathe the home in natural light. Gleaming engineered oak wood floors tie together a home that has been thoughtfully and lovingly redesigned by its current owners as a creative sanctuary. The fully remodeled kitchen is both spacious and serene, with stainless steel appliances, butcher block countertops + floating shelves, elegant shaker cabinetry, and verdant tile that reflects the lush garden outside the greenhouse window. The pine-paneled formal dining room is the home's heart and harbors a truly incredible secret (and perhaps a childhood dream of yours come to life): the custom-built bookcase is not just a bookcase, but a *secret door* to a sizable office, nursery, or creative space! Head outside and find an enchanting two-tiered garden escape, where mature plants engender a sense of privacy and calm. Dine with friends while taking in expansive views of the Elysian hills (jaw-dropping at golden hour) or mix up some drinks at your very own tropical-inspired bar, perfect for entertaining! The home is as functional as it is beautiful, and boasts a newer eco-smart cool roof + gutters, newer HVAC system, tankless water heater, areas with new in-wall insulation, gated carport with large shed + pegboard storage, four parking spots, and more. Moments away from hot spots like Little Barn, Loquat, and Barra Santos, 1942 Kemper is a rare gem - the best of indoor/outdoor living in the heart of Northeast LA!
