MI VISTA

Living on a hill has lots of advantages. Number one, I can always see you coming. Number two, I have awesome views! Since I never get to travel (since I'm a house,) it helps that I can see so much from my perch on my Silver Ridge hillside. I have lots of windows that frame beautiful and interesting views. From my front balcony (that stretches across my entire width,) I watch the sunrise and set over the diverse Los Angeles landscape. Here are some of my favorite views.

I AM HOME


I am a 1958 Mid-Century Modern home in the hills of Silver Lake- a wonderful community in Los Angeles, CA. I am starting this blog to share my views with all of you... and to allow you to take a virtual tour.

My current owners purchased me almost two years ago and have renovated my kitchen, living room and yard. I'm quite happy with the results.

Here are some basic facts about me:

3 bedrooms
1.75 baths (that means that one of the bathrooms has a shower instead of a tub/shower combo)
open concept living/dining/ kitchen
180 degree views of the Griffith Park Observatory, Hollywood Sign, Griffith Park, San Gabriel Mountains

Stephanie Bartron from SB Garden Designs is responsible for the wonderful yard and landscaping. Here's a link to her website: www.sbgardendesign.com

Rebecca Rudolph and Colin Thompson from RST + 73 Construction are responsible for the amazing kitchen/dining/living transformation. Here's a link to their site: www.rst73.com

As for the rest, I will let the pictures speak for themselves.
