About 4953 Ambrose Avenue
Constructed circa 1927 by renowned Los Angeles architect Philip J. Brinckerhoff, this timeless Spanish Colonial Revival home blends historic character with modern convenience. Located in the highly coveted Franklin Square enclave of Los Feliz, the residence has been thoughtfully updated while preserving its original architectural charm. A private courtyard with a bubbling fountain leads to a dramatic living room featuring soaring wood-beamed, hand-stenciled ceilings, an arched picture window, and a classic fireplace. The remodeled chef’s kitchen offers a central island, stainless steel appliances, farmhouse sink, wine cooler, and a sunlit breakfast room, while the formal dining room provides warmth and intimacy for entertaining. Upstairs, two bedrooms and one bathroom combine comfort with elegance. The converted garage has been transformed into a versatile gym with a half bath. Modern upgrades include dual-zoned HVAC and an electric motor court gate. The backyard is an entertainer’s retreat with an Endless pool and spa, outdoor shower, and firepit surrounded by lush landscaping for privacy. This rare offering celebrates the romance of Spanish Revival architecture while delivering today’s lifestyle comforts. Ideally located near Griffith Park, Los Feliz Village, and the shops and dining of Hillhurst and Vermont.
