Perched high above a quiet Highland Park street, this 1924 bungalow has been shaped over time by the eye and hand of an artist. A climb through cactus and flowering bougainvillea leads to the covered front porch, where a truly world-class view unfolds across Garvanza and the hills beyond, expansive and intimate in equal measure. Inside, the 2 bedroom, 2 bath residence unfolds over 1,224sf. Original built-ins, hardwood floors and simple period details form the backdrop to rooms layered with art, collected objects, textiles and color. Sunlight moves through broad windows, while moments of saturated pigment appear throughout, most memorably in the artist's studio on the home's second level, where a red mixed by the owner herself envelops the room.The living and dining rooms retain much of the bungalow's original character, including beautifully preserved cabinetry, while the kitchen introduces a more playful language of tile, pattern and painted surfaces. The primary bedroom, located on the first floor, is quiet and composed, with a generous window framing the greenery outside. Its ensuite bath, complete with a tub, has its own large window positioned to take in the view, bringing the landscape into even the most private spaces of the house. Thoughtful improvements, including energy-efficient heating and cooling, new windows, permitted subterranean drainage, and an in-unit washer and dryer, have been made with a light hand, allowing the house to evolve without losing its essential spirit. Descend the interior staircase to a studio with its own private entrance tucked along the side of the house. Long and deeply personal, the space is filled with paintings, paper, books and the traces of a life spent making things. Its scale and separation give it a natural flexibility, whether kept as a studio or reimagined as an additional bedroom, guest room or private retreat. Outside, the garden was once a blank canvas and has been treated as an art medium in its own right, composed plant by plant by the owner and tended with the same instinctive eye found throughout the house. Pride of Madeira, Matilija poppy, lavender, jasmine and several varieties of sage mingle with peach, citrus and fig trees, creating layers of color, fragrance and texture. Winding paths and quiet places to pause draw you deeper into the landscape, and at the top of the property the view reveals itself again in all its glory, vast and intimate at once. The house bears the unmistakable imprint of the person who has lived and worked here, but it does not feel fixed in place. Rather, it feels ready for another life, another collection, another point of view. A home shaped slowly and thoughtfully over time, with color, creativity and a sense of self woven through every room and every corner of the garden.

The classic California bungalow: a sun-filled two-bedroom, two-bath home on a quiet cul de sac. The neighborhood still carries something of 1920s Los Angeles with hillside streets, homes from a foregone era, and a sense that the locale was built one structure at a time, not planned all at once. Doors and windows open to the weather, and the city is just below..... This Mount Angelus property has a sensible layout, comfortable proportions and an easy relationship with the outside. French doors from both the primary bedroom and the kitchen open to a deck and backyard, where bougainvillea grows and a mature lime tree has been there long enough to belong.... Upstairs, beneath the roofline, is an attic space and considerably more storage than a house of this period usually offers. There's something about an attic, the way it lets you be home but not, outside of the usual life but above. .... One of the small tricks Los Angeles sometimes manages is making the city feel far away when it's just down the street. You can live in the hills with York close by is in one direction and Figueroa in the other plus restaurants, shops and all the essentials close at hand.
