3831 Franklin Avenue

A fully furnished (option for mostly unfurnished is available) mid-century modernist home for lease with sweeping westerly city views on the upper portion of the Franklin Hills in the vibrant neighborhood of Los Feliz. This 1951 split-level architectural with a great indoor/outdoor flow features a spacious and open living room with maple plank hardwood floors, a decorative free-standing fireplace, wood paneled built-ins, walls of glass that flood the room with natural light, and glass sliders that open to an open-air view deck. Adjacent to the living room is a den/office with a built-in desk, the laundry room, and a powder room. Up the half-flight of stairs is a large loft-like dining room that overlooks the living room and views, and is the ideal spot for throwing that ultimate dinner party. The open gourmet kitchen boasts granite countertops, a center island, a Dacor oven and range, and glass doors that open to the serene backyard with multiple fruit trees, a lounge area, and a trellised bougainvillea-covered patio dining area. Both bedrooms are at the rear of the home, and each have an en suite bath. The primary suite affords a secret walk-in closet, a glass door that opens to the yard, built-in drawers, an updated bath with penny-tiled flooring, and a separate bathtub and shower. Other highlights include central air and heating, and a garage with a spot to park one car. Conveniently located just minutes away from the cafes, shops, and restaurants on Hillhurst and Vermont avenues and Griffith Park. One year or longer (preferred) lease term.
