Perched high in the sought-after Burbank hills, this gorgeous mid-century modern home is a perfect example of classic indoor-outdoor California living. The house and garage wrap around the sparkling replastered pool, creating a private haven to swim and sun bathe, and the large covered breezeway adds extra living and dining spaces for shady entertaining. Inside in house you are welcomed into a massive living room with vaulted ceilings and bright picture windows anchored around a striking stone fireplace. The kitchen features beautifully preserved tiles and cabinetry, including a stunning stained-glass window reminiscent of Frank Llyod Wright. The flex space in the center of the home flows nicely to the outside entertainment areas and can be used as a formal dining room or family room. The bedroom wing of the home features a large primary suite with a full attached bath and sliding doors to a private, flat patio space. Two additional bedrooms, a large three-quarter hall bath and a separate laundry room complete the living space inside the home. The spacious side patio was added by the current sellers and could easily be extended further to expand the patio or add a grassy area. Featured as a 1956 'Idea Home of the Year' in Better Homes and Gardens, the house was designed and built by architect Joe B. Jordan, and the original plans remain at the house. Enjoy the quiet hillside living while remaining in the heart of everything LA has to offer, with easy access to Brand Park, commuter freeways, rail lines, Studios, downtown, and amazing local restaurants and amenities. This classic California sanctuary in the hills is ready and waiting for its next owner!
