LOCALLA

Cruise past the legendary Canyon Country Store, Laurel Canyon Cafe, and Pace Italian restaurant, then turn onto historical "Love Street" (Rothdell Trail) immortalized in the song by The Doors' lead singer, Jim Morrison, who once lived there with his girlfriend Pamela Courson. Just a few houses over, accessed by Prospect Trail--a City-owned stair street--you'll discover a special piece of Laurel Canyon history. Believed to have been built as a hunting lodge in 1928, this chill retreat has been thoughtfully updated while preserving its soulful character. It once again proudly presides over an enclave long favored by artists and creatives. This home channels classic Craftsman bungalow charm inside and out. The bright and airy interior includes tongue-and-groove wood vaulted ceilings that carry through to the bedroom and bathroom, pet-proof LVP-wood floors, and crafted details throughout. Large picture windows frame serene canyon and treetop views, bringing nature indoors and providing an expansive feel to the space. The nearly 600-square-foot layout includes one bedroom with walk-in closet, one bathroom, and a charming yet highly functional kitchen. French doors off the bedroom open to a private, shady patio and grassy yard with low-maintenance California native plantings and irrigation. Additional storage and laundry are conveniently located in the build-out below. Updates include a new roof. Perfect as a condo alternative, creative retreat, or inspiring pied-a-terre this rare Laurel Canyon hideaway invites you to slow down and let your imagination wander.
