About 1287 Holmby Avenue
Lovingly maintained and set slightly above the street on an extra-large Westwood lot, this inviting single-level home offers warmth, character, and exceptional potential on one of the neighborhood's most desired streets. From the moment you drive up to the home, you are welcomed by a grassy front yard with mature hedging, and a gated driveway creating an appealing sense of both privacy and presence from the street. Step inside the foyer to a floor plan that unfolds with comfortable scale and timeless appeal. The large formal living room is graciously proportioned and anchored by a fireplace, while a trey ceiling adds architectural detail and a refined sense of volume. Just beyond, the spacious formal dining room features classic wainscoting and flows naturally into the sun-filled family room boasting a raw wood ceiling with exposed beams filling the room with natural light, dramatic volume, warmth and character. Next is the modern eat-in kitchen, which is both functional and welcoming, with ample cabinetry, generous tiled counter space, some stainless appliances, and an inviting breakfast area all drenched in natural light. Just off the kitchen is a separate bedroom with a three-quarter bath, offering flexibility for guests, a home office, service quarters, or additional household needs. And to complete the tour of the home, we arrive at the bedroom wing off a center hallway, arranged for both comfort and privacy. The rear primary suite includes an attached vintage full bath and dual closets and is full of charm, ready to be enjoyed as is or reimagined over time. Two charming Jack and Jill bedrooms share another full bath, creating a practical and appealing layout for family or guests. The rear of the house opens through French doors to a patio and expansive grassy area. The indoor-outdoor connection is seamless and inviting, well suited for casual gatherings, entertaining, or simply enjoying backyard relaxation or play. Furthermore, the gated driveway offers an enclosed hardscape play area, adding flexibility for recreation, secure off-street use, or additional outdoor enjoyment. Additional features include a detached two-car garage, a Tesla EV charger, a new roof, and central heating and air conditioning. The property offers tremendous upside. Bring your designer to remodel to your own taste or start from scratch and build the home of your dreams. With its extra-large lot, single-level floor plan, and sought-after Westwood location, this is a compelling opportunity to create something truly special.
