Gardens Of Westwood

Many homeowners of Westwood take full advantage of the fertile soil and sunny, mild climate.  What results are some truly spectacular gardens of all shapes, colors and styles.  I've posted some examples here that I think you'll enjoy and there are more Westwood garden photos on my web site.  To see those, simply visit MickeyKessler.com and select "Westwood" in the Neighborhoods" menu.











Note: I am interested in photos of backyard gardens for future Westwood post cards.  If you'd like me to consider your garden please email photos to me at mkessler@verizon.net.  If you'd like me to photograph your garden for same, you're welcome to contact me at 310-367-2322.

                                 Listing Price $3,250,000
                                  3 Bedrooms, 3.75 Baths



Kessler's Comments: Listing Agent Juhree Fletcher has done a fantastic job transforming this fixer-Mid Century home into something really special.  She added a beautiful master upstairs with a stunning bath and did a phenomenal job with the pool, kitchen, Living Room and pretty much everything.  The light fixtures throughout the house reflect the cheerful ambiance of this home which is very bright and inviting, which is not always the case with Contemporary architecture.  I really like this house!





Per the MLS Remarks: Elegant contemporary in the beautiful Crests area of Beverly Hills. Walls of disappearing Fleetwood sliders effortlessly blend the inside with outside, connecting the pool area and patio living room to the main house.






Wide plank floors, natural stone, multiple skylights and four fireplaces add character and convenience to everyday living.













































The master has a private deck, dressing room and fireplace.

















































































Two additional en-suite bedrooms and an office complete the property.












































The last detail has been addressed, and the home is ready to welcome lucky new owners.

2712 N. Beverly Glen Blvd.
Listing Price $1,275,000
4 Bedroom, 3 Bathrooms

Kessler's Comments: Stunning!  Over the years, architect Bill Mack had designed a lot of homes in the Glen, but this is possibly my favorite. Its a spacious home with great lines and a uniquely large back yard (for the Glen), with pool and handsome gardens. There is already an offer in play however, so if this is your cup of tea, you better move fast!




Per The MLS Remarks: 
Bill Mack, practically synonymous with modernism in The Glen, works here on a flat lot in the upper area of the canyon. Walled for privacy, entry is through a gated, landscaped courtyard. 

Interior public spaces are decidedly open-plan with high ceilings and an abundance of natural light.






 
The residence includes a master suite with updated bath, three additional bedrooms, two guest bathrooms, pro-style kitchen with center-island and two-car garage with direct entry. 












The rear yard abuts serene parklands and is a veritable oasis, complete with sun-filled pool, raised decking, and lawn.
