Sold as-is and priced with renovation in mind, this is an opportunity to create the home you want without paying for someone else’s updates. Set just below the Hollywood Hills, this oversized one-bedroom offers the kind of space, location and flexibility that are getting harder to find. Step inside and the scale of this 1BR/2BTH home immediately stands out. Hardwood floors run through an expansive living and dining area with room to actually live, entertain and spread out, opening to a balcony deep enough for lounge seating, morning coffee or dinner outside. A true entry foyer, generous mirrored storage and a remarkably spacious bedroom give the home a sense of proportion you simply don’t get in many newer condos. The full bath plus separate bathroom also makes the layout especially functional for guests. The kitchen and baths remain largely original, which is exactly where the opportunity is. Update a little or rethink it completely. Either way, you’re starting with great square footage, a strong layout that you can make your own. Then there’s the building. Enjoy 24-hour concierge service, valet, guest parking, a fitness center, sauna and a rooftop deck made for lounging with views of the iconic Hollywood sign. 360 views stretch across the Hollywood Hills, to Culver City, and out toward the downtown skyline. And when you want to leave home, Runyon Canyon is minutes away, with hiking, restaurants, nightlife and the energy of Hollywood just down the hill, while Franklin Avenue itself feels distinctly more residential. Bring your ideas. The space, views, amenities and location are already here. Make the rest your own. Some photographs have been virtually staged and/or digitally edited.
