3353 Rowena Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90027

Beautiful family home on rare double lot within walking distance - really - of Los Feliz and Silverlake. First time listed. May be the last. Recently remodeled, the house was formerly a Buddhist monastery and though it no longer belongs to an order of monks, it is very much a quiet and elegant retreat in the heart of Los Feliz. The ground floor, set back from the street, features a spacious, step down living room with a working fireplace. The downstairs guest room has ample closet space and an Italian sofa bed with queen pull out and its own bathroom. A spacious dining room with an abundance of light flows into a recently overhauled kitchen that features 3? butcherblock countertops and stainless steel appliances. French doors open up into a zen-like patio with a charming outdoor fireplace. Upstairs, the second bedroom is ideal for children. Open and airy, a twin over full bunk bed with roll out trundle sleeps 3, possibly 4. Adjacent to it, the master suite features a California King, a custom designed walk-in closet, a Heath tiled bathroom with shower and tub, and an office nook with desk and view. The walls are inlaid with original steel casework windows that bathe the room in natural light. Wake up and watch your children play in our sprawling backyard ? or maybe just spot some of the wildlife that traffics through our property en route to Griffith Park.
