This bold architectural residence, conveniently located in West Los Angeles, offers 5 bedrooms and 6 baths in an architecturally striking two-story design. Its impressive curb appeal is framed by lush landscaping, making this home the clear choice for today's buyer seeking a modern, warm and restoratively calming home. The voluminous main level showcases today's open-concept floor plan with its soaring ceilings, gallery-scale walls, curated designer wallpaper, custom concrete floors, fine finishes and so much more.
