Designed by the inventor and architect of the world’s first motel, Arthur S. Heineman, this beautifully preserved, Japanese-inspired home is on the market for $2.97 million in Los Angeles, California. Listing details: This extraordinary home (Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument #1108) was built circa 1912 and designed by visionary architect Arthur S. Heineman. A rare, carefully preserved example of an Arts and Crafts era California Craftsman. Exquisite details abound, from the custom Japanese-inspired gable roofs with deep eaves, the curvilinear design in the front gate echoing the living room window and the leaded art glass in the original front door’s yin-yang window, to the elaborate artisanal and custom millwork throughout. Features a cozy inglenook, original hardwood floors, boxed beam ceilings, wainscoting, crown moldings, built-ins, casement windows, exterior clapboard siding and a porte-cochere. There’s been extensive updating in recent years and a tastefully curated touch of Old Hollywood that harmonizes with the original design. Upon entry, you’re greeted with an expansive living room showcasing vintage details and craftsmanship.

To the south, it opens to an elegant dining room and wine cellar access with your family-media room, powder room, and office area to the north. The west-facing kitchen is flooded with natural light and suitable for the home or professional chef! It boasts high-end appliances, a large island, an abundance of storage, and a charming breakfast nook. This all flows effortlessly to the designer-done backyard. Upstairs you have two bedrooms that share a freshly remodeled bathroom and a spacious primary bedroom replete with a new bathroom (Toto Neorest included), dual walk-in closets, and a sitting area. There are multiple outdoor areas on the oversized lot that lend versatility for intimate or grand scale gatherings and lush, mature landscaping for the privacy expected in a home of this caliber. Some highlights include a covered front porch, guest house/office/studio space with 1/2 bath, grassy front and rear yards, rear deck off of the kitchen and family room, a fitness/yoga pavilion, fire pit with seating, and a spacious pergola flanked outdoor dining room. Enjoy parking onsite for 6 cars. The home is located in St Andrews Square and just minutes to Larchmont Village, K-town, The Grove and DTLA!
