Inside, wide plank flooring runs throughout an open great room where original coved ceilings and arched doorways speak to the home’s heritage at every turn.

Three bathrooms, each with its own distinct design sensibility and a level of finish that speaks for itself. The defining feature of this property is the lot itself. Beyond the deck, an expansive private greenspace at the rear of the property offers room for a pool, pets, gardening, or the creation of a truly personalized outdoor retreat. The southwest side opens almost entirely along a quiet canyon—no neighboring walls, just mature trees, open sky, and afternoon light that collects on the deck until dusk. It is a rare orientation in this neighborhood and one that cannot be replicated. 4 bed | 3 bath | 2,144 sq ft | 8,400 SF lot | North Mission Hills
