From the Agent: "Built by the owners for themselves, this visionary retreat is a treasure in the midst of the city: a two-structure compound, centered around a lush and private center garden. The extraordinary attention to detail is evident in the quality of the finishes and the layout of the rooms and structures themselves. Each aspect is artfully designed to take full advantage of the natural light and exterior elements with an ever-unfolding romance between the interiors and the lush foliage and flowers of the garden. The main residence features a ground-floor bedroom and bath and an upstairs primary suite with two private patios, a walk-in closet, and an office. The secondary structure is equally dramatic in design with large windows that frame views of the garden like a movie screen frames a film. The property is also situated in close proximity to the most desirable shops and restaurants and the noted Silver Lake farmers market."
