Property Description

The 1912 Van Ness Estate is a one-of-a-kind offering. This magnificent Windsor Square trophy estate spans over an acre across three adjoining lots from Van Ness to 1st Street.Comprising a masterfully restored Primary Residence, Guest House, and multiple ancillary structures, the estate offers over 7,000 square feet of living space, including 7 bedrooms, 8 baths/powder rooms, 3 kitchens, 3 reception rooms, private office, music studio, full gym, wine cellar/tasting room, potting shed, pool, and cabana with shower. These structures are elegantly connected by lush native gardens, patios, and terraces, designed for both intimate gatherings and grand events. Meticulously restored and maintained for over 35 years, the estate preserves its original architectural elements while integrating modern luxury. Recognized in The Bungalow, Inside the Bungalow, Style 1900 Magazine, and House Beautiful, it also received the Historical Landmark Award from the Windsor Square-Hancock Park Historical Society.Built c.1912, the Primary Residence at 111 S Van Ness is a three-level California Craftsman showcasing museum-quality craftsmanship. Authentic features include leaded and stained glass, hand-stenciled friezes, William Morris wallpapers, and custom millwork in quarter-sawn oak, Douglas fir, and Honduran mahogany. The exterior is defined by a broad gabled roof, exposed rafters, brick pillars, and a covered porch leading to a grand oak-paneled foyer with stained-glass window and sweeping staircase.Interior highlights include a sunlit living room, richly appointed den with original fireplace and stained glass, and a formal dining room with box-beam ceiling and built-in sideboard. The gourmet kitchen blends artisan cabinetry with top-tier appliances and opens to a breakfast room featuring garden views and a hand-painted mural. Upstairs offers 5 bedrooms and 3 baths, including a serene primary suite with sitting area, walk-in closet, and marble-clad en-suite. The lower level includes a private screening room, full catering kitchen, and utility spaces housing high-end systems. Double oak doors open to expansive gardens and a stunning lap pool, spa and hand-laid mosaic tile, surrounded by stone patios, lounge areas, and a pergola-covered al fresco dining space. To the south, a bamboo-lined side yard features drought-tolerant landscaping and a tranquil fountain. To the north, a Moroccan-style courtyard with trellised pergola, fruit trees, and herringbone brick paving.Paths connect to a brick barbecue center, native plant beds, and a vast terrace with fireplace, pizza oven, and vine-draped pergola dining area. The terrace overlooks a serene native garden with redwoods, wildflowers, and water features. All outdoor structures, built of wood, stone, and brick, harmonize naturally with the landscape.To the south of the pool lies the Music Studio, accessed by custom barn doors, featuring a vaulted ceiling, reclaimed Beachwood walls and floors, and refined details throughout.Beyond a trellised gate, the vine-covered Poolside Cottage includes four spaces: a sunlit exercise studio with built-ins; a hidden hydraulic trap door leading to a 2,000-bottle, climate-controlled wine cellar; a central private office with artisan-crafted woodwork and stained glass; and a cabana with tiled shower and changing room.In the garden's corner, the brick-and-wood Potting Shed, complete with Arts & Crafts lighting and replica leaded-glass windows, supports thriving native landscaping.At 4814 W 1st Street, the Guest House is a fully renovated 1949 2 bedroom, 2 bath home in the Arts & Crafts style.
