Property Description

Step into timeless sophistication in this beautifully renovated home within Koreatown's prestigious Chateau Chaumont, a landmark designed by renowned architect Kenneth MacDonald Jr. in 1928. With its French Renaissance-style faade, celebrity ownership history, and Mills Act tax benefits, this residence offers a unique blend of historic charm, modern luxury, and exceptional value. Situated on a premium fourth-floor location, the home showcases unobstructed city light views through expansive windows. The interior has been thoughtfully updated to preserve its original character while introducing high-end modern amenities. Original hardwood floors, custom millwork, and concrete walls create a timeless atmosphere, while high ceilings and large windows fill the space with light and enhance the open layout. The modernized gourmet kitchen boasts intricate custom tile, Silestone counters, and premium appliances from Miele, Bosch, and Samsung, including a five-burner gas range. Rejuvenation hardware and Marmoleum flooring complete the chic design. The luxurious bathroom features a freestanding tub with captivating city views, a limestone sink, and Kallista unlacquered brass fixtures, blending elegance and comfort. The home also includes a fireplace, a grand entryway, ample closet space, a Miele washing machine, and a dual-zone heating system. The basement-level private storage unit, covered gated parking, and access to a shared rooftop patio further enhance convenience. This property is not only a residence but also an investment opportunity, as it is registered as a filming location, offering a potential income stream while keeping HOA fees low. Its historic designation under the Mills Act also significantly reduces property taxes, making it a standout value. Located on a quiet, semi-private street near Sand Dune Park and Koreatown Plaza, the home offers proximity to local parks, schools, Metro lines, and cultural landmarks like The Wiltern Theater. Enjoy unparalleled access to the best dining, shopping, and entertainment in Koreatown while savoring the serenity of this exclusive retreat. With its designer-quality renovations, timeless charm, and income-generating potential, this residence is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Los Angeles history. Property available for lease at $3,900/month. A furnished option is also available. Please inquire for details.
