Overview

Set behind privacy gates, this expansive 1927 Spanish hacienda emanates pure romance and nostalgia right in the middle of the city. Manicured hedges lead up to a dramatic entrance, with a formal entryway lined with Spanish tile and views of stained glass. Step down into the formal living room, with its vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, arched picture window and built-ins, and period-appropriate iron details and sconces. The formal dining room and cozy breakfast nook both offer inspired places to dine, and the handsomely appointed kitchen is lined with penny tile floors and marble tile backsplashes. A dedicated laundry room is an added convenience, and both bathrooms have been tastefully updated with period-appropriate tile in soft yellow and powder blue. The whole of the home wraps around a central courtyard with a Spanish style fountain, a soothing and distinctly LA view that's visible and accessible from several rooms. Each of the three bedrooms offers a generous space to retreat, and the en-suite primary opens out to a sparkling dipping pool surrounded by privacy hedges. After you cool off in the pool, take a break in the deluxe sauna nestled into the poolside shed. 802 S Genesee provides a unique opportunity to own a historic and character-rich home on a nearly 9000 sq ft lot with the utmost privacy in one of Los Angeles' most convenient and coveted locations. LACMA, the Petersen Museum, the Academy Museum, and the La Brea Tar Pits are all just a stone's throw away from your front door.
