662 Loring Avenue

Here, set majestically above the street on one of Little Holmby's loveliest avenues, is this charming shingle-clad Traditional. Built in 1937 and rich in character and charm, this true home features gleaming hardwood floors, an abundance of built-ins, crown moldings, French windows and doors and so much more. The formal foyer leads, to one side, to the grand living room warmed by a beautiful fireplace. There is easy access to the back yard patio from here. Also off the foyer is a spacious formal dining room with chair-railing detail and treetop streetside vistas. The kitchen, just recently tastefully updated, is adjacent. Off the kitchen is a flexible space with a bath, perfect for use as a sixth bedroom, nanny or housekeeper's space or home office. Upstairs are five terrific bedroom spaces, each large and sunny. There is plenty of storage throughout this home. Front and back staircases. The backyard brick patio and upper terraced gardens and pergola are perfect spots for casual lounging and dining under the Southern California sun and stars. These outdoor areas also provide lovely views across this maturely wooded neighborhood. Highly rated Warner Avenue Elementary. Very conveniently located in close proximity to UCLA and to the restaurants, shops and services in nearby Westwood, Brentwood, Beverly Hills and Century City. 18-month leases or longer, please.
