About this home
Lovingly cared-for two-bedroom, one-bathroom 1920s cottage-style home nestled in the hills of Mt Washington, minutes from Downtown LA, Highland Park, Silver Lake and in easy reach of the Metro Gold Line downhill. Cherished over the years by the current owners with numerous improvements, most notably the lower level bedroom, legally added in 1990, and a remodeled kitchen and bathroom. The decorative fireplace and light fixtures in the living and dining rooms are original as are the hardwood floors which have recently been refinished. Set down from the road above and surrounded in trees, this is an ideal setting for living in peace and creating free from distraction. Indoors and out, privacy and views are available from every angle and at every level. Interior is generously lit in the daytime by south-facing windows and skylights. In the myriad patio areas, intimate spaces abound for quiet reflection and entertaining alike. Below the house, are opportunities for gardening, decks and even more spaces to be imagined. In the distance, the San Gabriels rise from the left, snow-caps visible in winter and broadcast antennas winking red in the night, and to the right, the trails of Deb's Park beckon. Property boasts both a storied history and a place in the local architectural legacy. Built in 1928 by a neighbor next door then sold to Eleanor McNulty, secretary for William Randolph Hearst's long-time mistress, Marion Davies, herself a star of Broadway, the Ziegfeld Follies and silent film. Eleanor McNulty's husband George Bernard McNulty was technical director on The Plough and the Stars, a 1937 film directed by John Ford. 502 Dove Dr. is an example of 1920's & 30's 'Storybook' architecture or Provincial Revivalism, a style brought here from rural Europe by American soldiers returning from WWI and built, in many cases, by craftspeople from Hollywood's fledgling film industry. Interior and main patio are depicted here with virtual staging.
