If you are in search of peace and privacy, this hilltop home has it in aces. Situated on over half an acre and hidden in the Echo Park hills just 15 mins from Downtown Los Angeles, this 3 story Spanish-style home is one of Elysian Heights’s last remaining great estates.

At 775 feet above sea level, 1831 Cerro Gordo sits atop one of the highest sites in Echo Park and offers uninterrupted and unrivaled views from the mountains to DTLA and all the way to Catalina Island.

Unseen from the street, the home is located up a 130 foot driveway with just one neighbor on one side.

Our next open house is coming up! Call me if you’d like to see this beauty.

I mean it when I say views for days. Breathtaking. The home has several many patios, decks, and outdoor areas for you to enjoy the treetop, or should I say mountaintop, views,

Inside the home you will find a bright living room with a beautiful Batchelder fireplace, hardwood floors, and casement windows.

Amazing built-ins and charming touches from a bygone era can be found spotted throughout the house.

The dining room offers great views and a built-in bar.

The kitchen has been completely redone in a lovely faux limed oak with glass cabinets to match the period. Notice the hooks to hang your pots from the ceiling and the garden window above the sink.

On the main floor you will find a half bath and the first of your three bedrooms. The versatile space offers easy outdoor access to your wonderful backyard.

The upstairs master suite boasts stunning views of the canyon and city below.

And its own breezy sunroom.

A second upstairs bedroom and a full bath complete the main home.

A view of your walled-in garden from above.

The separate apartment on the first floor offers a great guest quarters, private office space, or income potential.

The separate suite has its own full bath and a super cute vintage kitchen.

The enchanting outdoor spaces include multiple patios, deck space, and entertaining areas.

Plus mature lemon, lime, avocado, zapote, pomegranate, and oak trees and plenty of places to explore on this double lot property.

Venture down the meandering paths in what feels like your own private park to a stone amphitheater that was once used by the Sierra Club to put on plays and lectures.

1831 Cerro Gordo is the ultimate private sanctuary in Echo Park.

A Taos-esque retreat in a lush, larger-than-life hillside setting.
