The home of word-class renowned architect Wallace Neff which was meticulously restored is now in the market for $5 million. According to Los Angeles Curbed, Neff's early classic Spanish colonial architecture reflects the early heritage of southern California.
The property was originally designed by Neff for a real estate developer in 1924. During this time, Neff was less than 30 years old, and the property last came to the market in 2013 and closed a sale a couple of months later for $2.45 million. Paradise Leased found some of the early photos of the home before it was restored and renovated. The blog commended Neff for bringing beauty to the Spanish Colonial revival home with the impressive woodwork and colorful tiles. The intricate ironwork against the white walls also keeps the house feeling relaxed and informal.
The Los Feliz mansion has a total of four bedrooms and five full bathrooms and has a total area of 3,900 square feet. Listing details of the property reveal that the residence which is located just behind the gates of a private driveway offers panoramic views of the city and a stunning view of the city lights at night. It also offers the view of downtown Los Angeles and the ocean.
The classic entryway leads to the spacious living room which features a two-story beam cathedral ceiling and a fireplace with the original ironwork of Julius Dietzmann. The living room also has doors which lead to the patios and veranda where one can enjoy significant amount of sunshine which flows throughout the rooms.
The property also has a stunning gourmet kitchen which opens to the unique dining area and a family room which also offers stunning views. The home also retained the original tile work in the staircase which leads to the four bedrooms and four bathrooms on the second level. Outside, there is a huge swimming pool and a waterfall/spa.
