A kit house built in 1931, on 0.2 acres
This three-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bathroom house was assembled from a kit made by the Pacific Ready-Cut Home Company, one of the largest prefabricated home businesses of the early 20th century. It sits in the hills of Studio City, less than five minutes by car from a bustling stretch of Ventura Boulevard and from the Radford Studio Center soundstages. Fryman Canyon, a popular hiking trail, is 10 minutes away, as is Laurel Canyon Dog Park.
Driving to the Hollywood Bowl or to West Hollywood takes about 15 minutes. Hollywood Burbank Airport is a 20-minute drive.
Size: 1,472 square feet
Price per square foot: $744
Indoors: From the garage, outdoor stairs lead up to the front patio, which has brick floors and views of Studio City.
Inside is a foyer, with two bedrooms off one side and the living room off the other. The living room has an original bow truss ceiling as well as an original fireplace with a raised hearth and built-in bookshelves on either side. The dining room, accessible via both living room and foyer, is lined with a wall of windows offering views of the surrounding hillsides.
Also off the dining room, through an arched doorway, is the kitchen, which has Caesarstone countertops, custom-built wood cabinets. and a stainless steel gas range. A breakfast nook is tucked into the far end of the space, and a half-bathroom is off the kitchen.
The primary bedroom, off the foyer, has space for a king-size bed and a wide picture window facing the backyard. A bedroom next door is big enough for a queen-size bed, and the third bedroom is directly off the dining room, with exposed wood beams running along the ceiling. The full bathroom, with a combined tub and shower, is next to the primary bedroom.
