This Tuesday I was fortunate enough to start the day at our own
listing in the Hancock Park area and experience the flip side of broker's open caravan, welcoming the
many agents that came thru to preview the house for their clients. The house is a magnificent restored
craftsman style home, impecibly restored by the owner in a way like no
other. Today was my second
opportunity to host an open house there - it's endlessly fun to see how
everyone that tours this home reacts to how special it is.
 |
| Striking Exterior |
 |
| only gets better inside |
 |
| As you go through this home every room gets even better |
 |
| You won't find a kitchen like this in any other house |
 |
| all custom wood work |
 |

 |
| adjacent sunroom - the perfect place to work |

 |

 |

 |
| serene backyard |
 |
| Barn doors open up to the patio on the back house |
 |
| ...which is complete with kitchenette and bath |
 |
| koi pond in back yard - absolultely equisite |
About an hour later I had the chance to slip
away and check out some other open houses. I actually made it to six. Here's a few favorites:
Over in Beverlywood, I found this cozy 2 bedroom/2 bath
Spanish style house listed for $926,000
 |
| welcoming spanish tiled steps |
 |
| Beautiful beamed ceiling and fireplace in the living room |
 |
| formal dining room with recessed ceiling |
 |
| Updated kitchen - there was also a adjacent cozy family room (not shown) |
 |
| Al Fresco dining area and enclosable artist studio |
 |
| flagstone patio with covered arbor and gardens |
A little further South, also in Beverlywood, I was keen on this quaint, nicely preserved spanish style 2 bedroom, 2
bath for $795,000.
 |
| Beautiful tiled front courtyard |
 |
| enchanting courtyard arches |
 |
| large living room with stained glass window |
 |
| 1940's tiled bath |
Last, and probably my most favorite (aside from our house) was this 3 bedroom, 3
bathroom remodeled Traditional for $819,000 in Picfair Village.
 |
| Picture perfect Traditional on the outside |
 |
| decorated with flair on the inside |
 |
| Hardwood floors throughout |
 |
| Updated kitchen with nicely preserved original details |
 |
| 3 Full Baths all with high quality finishes |
 |
| Great entertainment deck and detached Bonus Room or "Man Cave" |
I only gave myself an hour to see other houses, but luckily I was able to pack it all in. I circled back to Hancock Park in time for the last half hour at our own open house. It was exciting to be back at this wonderful house - it was full of buyers who were lingering there and it seemed clear to me that whoever buys it will be a lucky person; every time they come home they'll get to have the same wonderful feeling I had at the end of my day!
