About this property
Set in the hills of Topanga, this RARE 1930s retreat pairs timeless character with thoughtful modern updates and sweeping canyon and mountain views. Original hardwood floors, vaulted ceilings and exposed wood beams create a warm, authentic feel, while expansive windows frame the landscape beyond. The main level centers on a dramatic living room with soaring ceilings and a wood-burning stove, opening to the dining area and a remodeled chef's kitchen with custom walnut cabinetry, volcanic stone countertops and a Viking range. An adjacent lounge area is ideal for entertaining. Two guest bedrooms enjoy peaceful views, and the level also includes a full bathroom with backyard access and a convenient half bath with double sinks. Downstairs, the serene primary suite features a spa-like en-suite bath with dual sinks, a clawfoot tub and a glass-enclosed shower. An oversized flexible room offers space for a screening room, office or creative studio. Outdoors, a private, resort-style setting awaits, with lush landscaping, a saltwater pool and spa, expansive patios and multiple outdoor living areas. A true Topanga escape, approximately six miles to Woodland Hills and ten miles to the beach.
