Discover a rare opportunity to own a property that blends stunning modernity with architectural heritage in the heart of Los Angeles. This exquisite unit represents the pinnacle of Lago Vista, the renowned curved building designed by Mid Century architect Allyn Morris, commanding breathtaking views of Echo Park Lake.
Previously, a comparable unit in lesser condition and location sold for $860,000, underscoring the exceptional value of this meticulously renovated residence. The building itself has undergone recent enhancements including new exterior paint and a remodeled pool, with additional upgrades underway.
Centrally located for effortless access to major freeways, this prime address is nestled amidst the vibrant neighborhoods of DTLA, Chinatown, Elysian Park, Silver Lake, and Little Tokyo. Guest parking available at the upper and mid parking areas. The unit's positioning within this curved structure offers unparalleled vistas, with direct view of the lake's boathouse and fountain, with optimal orientation for morning sunlight and afternoon shade.
Step outside to find convenient access to designated parking, pool, laundry facilities, and an upper parking lot for easy transport to and from the unit. Do not underestimate the value of this ease of access to essentially everything right outside your door. The interior has been completely transformed, essentially ripped out and built anew. Now featuring new flooring, paint, lighting, kitchen, bathroom, and even new copper plumbing. A new central AC system with warranty ensures year-round comfort.
The kitchen is a masterpiece with a double waterfall peninsula, bar seating, high-end cabinetry, and Samsung SmartThings appliances. Original details such as the beamed ceilings and floating staircase have been meticulously preserved, while a large glass sliding door leads to a patio with acacia wood flooring and solid mahogany louvered doors.
Enjoy mesmerizing 180-degree views stretching from DTLA to Glendale, including the enchanting sight of swan paddleboats gliding on the lake and light up at night. Ideal for entertaining, witness 4th of July fireworks displays from DTLA to Glendale, Dodger Stadium Friday night fireworks, and Echo Park's vibrant cultural events, including the annual Lotus Festival.
