An artistic vision brought to life. Perched on a private and serene 1/3rd acre lot, the family home of architect Patrick Bernatz Ward is a timeless restoration of a magical Pyramidal Victorian-style home in historic Lincoln Heights. Reinterpreted to meet the needs of modern day living, this published home (Architectural Digest, Milk Magazine, Local Project and others) was originally built as a local spec home in 1890 and has been transformed into a magical indoor/outdoor compound with one breathtaking room after another all surrounded by gorgeous and lush gardens. Bernatz Ward's studio is known for its use of local materials, and here they can be found in the home's building methods, finishes, and design applications throughout. The main living space offers a custom wraparound sofa bathed in natural light from the many restored windows. High ceilings create a wonderful feeling of space and volume with a bonus loft and easy patio access. The kitchen is the centerpiece of the home with black walnut custom cabinetry and millwork, reclaimed floor tiles and a magnificent dining area flanked by incredible windows with a custom shutter system setting the scene for the views of Downtown LA,the Hollywood Sign, Griffith Park Observatory and beyond. Three bedrooms complete the layout with a primary suite offering an en-suite bathroom with a sunken bathtub that merges seamlessly with the outdoors. An additional guest suite below the home with its own entrance offers easy room for visitors or office/work space. Sited on a very special double lot (two APNs) with a winding driveway leading to the many gardens, featuring a 120-year-old olive tree and 100-year-old palms, creating a myriad of spaces to entertain, host and enjoy the best of California living. Located in a lovely Lincoln Heights neighborhood close to many shops and restaurants while also being just moments from Highland Park, Downtown LA and much more. A truly special opportunity that is not to be missed.
