Storied musical history in Laurel Canyon sets the perfect ambient mood for this dramatically unique dwelling. In this organic setting, a charming funicular leads you to what will be a stunning inspiration for daily life. Framed by the statement-arched outdoor veranda, senses are flooded upon entering the living room. Current owner has completed a restoration of meticulous authenticity. Endless details of rich wood, glass, and nature compete for attention when entering, but slowly one sees the high level of individual original touches placed artfully- pristine leaded and stained glass, solid wood-paneled walls, original window frames, and immaculate hand-crafted built-ins. The arc of daylight allows for a natural movement of easy warmth in different rooms throughout the day. Evening shimmers on every deck at this heightened point. Elevated perfectly to capture intense views including the full scope of the city, Observatory, and DTLA. Privacy and romanticism are enjoyed from extraordinary multiple decks, which are perfectly integrated into the flow of the home. When media consultant and personality Elliot Mintz owned the home, the enchanted setting provided for numerous soirees and gatherings of artists and muses who contributed to the specialness of the period. Different visitations, evidenced by a captivating Stevie Nicks photo shoot (framed photos of this shoot will be transferred with the property) or the regular visits by John Lennon during the Mintz era, show that every pocket of the home reverberates with touchstones reflecting tremendous culture and rock music history. Quietude in the middle of the city feels immediately feels like an effortless retreat. But this is more than an idyllic place to call home. This is a sublime experience infused with delight and exceptional magic.
