1158 Montecito Dr Los Angeles, CA, 90031

Major fixer upper located in the heart of the Montecito Drive Residential Historic district and representing a unique opportunity to complete your very own project is the mid-century modern home at 1158 Montecito Drive. Built in 1963 with a design by Richard Kearney and John Pugsley, the home enjoys a spectacular view to the South-East and incredible light through a verdant canyon populated with kindred spirits and plentiful wildlife. The home is in extreme disrepair and as a result, will be unlikely to qualify for a conventional mortgage at this time. The original design of the main level remains much as when built but in the middle of the house, a circular stairwell leads down to a legal bedroom suite that was added in subsequent years with permits. The total square footage of the house on public records is 1,484 and the lot size is 7,658. (Zimas) Neighboring homes have been remodeled with great success and the character and design of these homes with cantilever construction and canyon views are timeless and so very L.A. Montecito Heights remains an incredible treasure a short 5 miles from Downtown Los Angeles but with a giant open space park at Debs Park, greenery in every direction and views that stop you in your tracks if you take an evening stroll.
