3 Beds      4 Baths      1,570 + 339 BONUS SF      Airbnb Studio Unit Generates Additional Income      Canyon Views      $1,555,000    SOLD

This designer compound in Laurel Canyon offers options that other houses on the market don’t. Particularly attuned to changing times, this gated, secured group of living spaces create separation for work from home, as well as the possibility of earning income via Airbnb without having paying guests in your sightline. The jewel of the lot is a renovated 2BR/2BA 1,270 sq.ft. mid-century-style main residence with an open floor plan. Living (with fireplace), dining, and chef’s kitchen are combined to maximize interaction and views from a balcony (perfect for bbq’ing). Full guest bathroom on this floor, too. Custom draperies, dramatic lighting, and stone counter tops throughout. The main home’s 2 bedrooms share a recently re-done bathroom. Below is a remodeled 339 sq.ft. basement with separate exterior entrance. This flex space could be office or nanny's room and has laundry plus a full bathroom. The lot’s separate 300 sq.ft. guest house has a kitchenette and full bathroom. Indoor/outdoor living is key here with tiered lounging and dining areas surrounded by lush landscaping. BONUS ALERT: WONDERLAND SCHOOL DISTRICT!
