Description

An artist residence like no other. This classic 1924 Spanish in Los Feliz steeped in character, soul, and story has been masterfully painted by renowned French artist Claire Tabouret in collaboration with the home's historic bones. Located in the heart of Los Feliz and adjacent to Laughlin Park, this gated and private 3BR/3BA home blends original romantic Spanish details with modern updates. Soaring beamed ceilings, vibrant colors, and abundant charm are found at every turn. The crown jewel of the home is a series of 19 hand-painted ceiling panels, inspired by the iconic tarot card illustrations of Pamela Colman Smith and reinterpreted through Tabouret's distinct lens. Set above the formal double-height living room, these rich, mystical works evoke The Lovers, The Wheel of Fortune, and other archetypes infusing the space with symbolism, narrative, and depth. The home offers a flexible downstairs layout with a spacious family room, formal dining room, updated contemporary kitchen and guest bedroom with bath. Upstairs is a balcony library leading to a second bedroom and bathroom, as well as the primary suite with custom millwork wardrobe and gorgeous en-suite bath with steam shower. A series of arched French doors open to a private balcony patio with sweeping views of Downtown Los Angeles and beyond, framed by jasmine and palm trees. A tiled patio and lushly landscaped garden offer a private escape, featuring a ptanque court and multiple areas for dining and entertaining. Located just minutes from Griffith Park, Hollywood, and Los Feliz Village, come discover this true work of art in one of the city's most desirable neighborhoods.
