Gorgeous and rare 1928 architectural 1 bedroom + 1 bath at the Historic Chateau Chaumont in the center of Koreatown. The French Renaissance Revival-style complex was designed by Kenneth Macdonald Jr., the architect of Downtown's Spring Street Arcade Building and Glendale's Southern Pacific Station. Enough historical significance that the property is now under the MILLS ACT, thus reducing your property taxes. Unit 42A is large at 1200 sq feet and has been thoughtfully renovated maintaining its historical details, while adding modern updates for todays lifestyle. The 4th floor unit captures the LA skyline and beautiful downtown views with few obstructions. Once inside, you are welcomed by a formal foyer and newly-refinished hardwood floors that flow seamlessly from room to room. Light-filled living room with 9' ceilings, framed by historic windows, millwork moldings and a grand fireplace. Formal dining room is a fabulous space for your dinner parties and enjoying views of the Downtown skyline. The kitchen renovation (completed in 2021) is a beautiful combination of dark and white tones adorned by stunning tile work, designer light fixtures and high-end appliances. Gracious primary bedroom with a wall of windows and an abundance of closet space strategically positioned as architecture. Fall in love with the elegantly designed bathroom with freestanding Kohler tub, Kallista hardware, concrete floors and Limestone Stone Forest sink. Day or night - from all rooms (inc. from the bathtub!) you will be mesmerized by the East-facing downtown views. Designed with beauty in mind, the unit is full of carefully chosen light fixtures, custom window treatments and is shrouded in an array of Farrow & Ball paint colors to capture light & mood. No detail was overlooked in the careful design of this unique home. Two-zone furnace heating and thick concrete walls keep the unit cool in the summer and warm in the winter. Laundry: washing machine in kitchen. Private storage unit and outdoor rooftop access. One covered parking space in gated, one-level garage. Guest parking available in the rear outdoor courtyard. Moments to the Metro, Wiltern Theater and an abundance of shopping & eateries. The property and unit are registered as a filming location and can generate income if you choose! One of only a handful of architecturally significant properties, the Chateau Chaumont is a true reflection of a bygone era and a pillar of the community. A very special offering.
