SOLD: This 3BR/2BA 2,096 sq.ft. urban retreat is nestled on a cul-de-sac street in Beverly Glen Canyon. Creative energy flows through the residence which has been home to artistic types and their families since its 1932 inception. American artist/photographer Robert Heinecken resided here for almost two decades, raising his three children and making use of a bonus room as a production area and darkroom for printmaking. Heinecken, who was exhibited at MOMA and worldwide and established the photography program at UCLA (10 minutes from Viretta Lane), left his mark on "The Heinecken House" by opening up the dining room walls, designing a sunburst tile pattern on a kitchen wall, and installing Moroccan-style tile on the home's fireplace mantel. Additional features of the colorful home include redwood beams and siding, period detailing, high ceilings, gleaming hardwood floors in the living and dining rooms, magnesite staircase with iron railing, hand-plastered walls, vintage and re-created malibu-style tile in bathrooms, vintage sconces, crown moldings, stained glass window, large kitchen which is open to the dining area (and can see into the living room), sun room, laundry room, bonus room, and storage areas (wine). Two of the three bedrooms are nicely-sized (one with a built-in office) and the other is child-friendly, all with walk-in closets. Families will appreciate access to Warner Avenue Elementary School. Live life in verdant spaces outside of this one-of-a-kind home. A large brick patio off of the house's kitchen is where outdoor barbecues are bound to happen. Mature trees dot the grounds, from which birds sing all day long. On the other side of the home is a magical garden retreat with pathways, flat areas, and an above-ground spa. 2-car garage with 1 space in front of it, as well as 2 other uncovered side-by-side parking spaces (see site plan). A new roof was installed in May 2022, after photos were taken. TWO SIDE-BY-SIDE LOTS ARE BEING SOLD TOGETHER: Lot with house APN#4371-045-001 is 5,361 sq.ft.
