About This Property
Welcome to Baldwin Vista, the hidden gem of Los Angeles. This home is situated in the original Rancho Cienega parcel, founded by both Spanish and Mexican pioneers. Development began in the 40's; developers brought in mid-century architecture throughout Baldwin Hills and Baldwin Vista, replacing the Sunset Hills Golf Club and beginning with the first home on Don Felipe. The neighborhood has long been home to many athletes, entrepreneurs, musicians, and a wide variety of artists of all ethnicities. The current owners have preserved the more than 85-year-old bonsai tree in the backyard as an homage to the post-war Japanese migration. Baldwin Vista's proximity to the Crenshaw-LAX and Expo light rails, buses, and freeways provide easy access to major universities, beaches, places of business, DTLA, shopping that includes Ralphs, Whole Foods, boutiques, and the new Costco development near Coliseum and La Brea. This modern mid-century oasis was recently remodeled and updated again, by the current owners. The stunning residence offers an impressive ADU/Casita, a refreshing pool, an outdoor fireplace with a built-in BBQ, a basketball court adjacent to the grassy yard - corn hole, badminton, or croquet anyone? Step inside and be captivated by the seamless flow of this thoughtfully designed home. The open-concept floor plan allows for easy entertaining with modern living and working. The 11-foot vaulted and beamed ceilings create an airy and spacious ambiance, providing a sense of modern flair throughout. The main home showcases a stylish kitchen equipped with top-of-the-line appliances, sleek countertops, and ample storage. Whip up gourmet meals while enjoying the company of loved ones in the adjacent dining area. The spacious dining area can easily accommodate a buffet and dining room table for 12. The first floor living space in the main home is an inviting space, featuring skylights, and large windows that flood the home with natural light and offer stunning views of the landscaped backyard. Make your way to the backyard oasis, where you'll discover a true paradise for relaxation and entertainment. Take a dip in the sparkling pool, perfect for hot summer days, or gather around the cozy outdoor fireplace on cool evenings, creating memories that will last a lifetime. The basketball court is ideal for friendly competitions or honing your skills. Retreat upstairs to the primary suite, a sanctuary of comfort and tranquility. The spacious bedroom is complemented by a luxurious ensuite bathroom, complete with a soaking tub, a walk-in shower, dual vanities, a walk-in closet, and a dressing area plus a second wall-to-wall closet. The primary upstairs suite also features a private balcony, providing a serene escape where you can unwind and enjoy breathtaking views. The downstairs includes a front bedroom that could also be used as an office, a second ensuite bedroom with a half bathroom, plus a third ensuite bedroom with a full bathroom, a jack-and-jill guest bathroom with a shower, and laundry room that provides direct access to the back yard oasis - no more tracking water onto the gorgeous wood floors! In addition to the main residence, this property offers a fantastic ADU/Casita, perfect for accommodating guests, extended family, or as a rental unit. The ADU features its own kitchen, living and sleeping area, and bathroom, providing privacy and convenience for everyone. The home also has a fully finished detached garage. This modern home with an ADU, pool, outdoor fireplace, basketball court, and vaulted ceilings is an exceptional find. The remodel and updates were completed and approved by the city and met the city's energy efficiency guidelines at the time of completion. There is also a Tesla auto charger. Don't miss the opportunity to experience the epitome of contemporary living in a highly sought-after neighborhood.

Since the 1960s, Baldwin Hills has been known as an upscale enclave and cultural hub. Similar to other LA communities, Baldwin Hills was once home to several A-list celebrities like Ray Charles and Tina Turner and has made several appearances on television including HBO’s hit show Insecure. Nestled on winding hills, Baldwin Hills boasts some of the best views in Los Angeles. Although the neighborhood is known as an upscale community, there are some moderately priced rentals available as well. Low-rise apartments and luxurious single-family homes dot the streets of Baldwin Hills.
Along with scenic views, renters are attracted to Baldwin Hills’s diverse, close-knit community and excellent location. Nearby restaurants serve up everything from jerk chicken to seafood. A variety of cultural events like the Leimert Park Village Book Fair and the Pan African Film and Art Festival are held throughout the year at the Baldwin Hills Crenshaw Mall.
