848 North Harper Avenue
three residences on one gated lot in the heart of the melrose place neighborhood. a designer compound with a flexibility almost nothing else in the category offers. own it, live in one and rent two, or house family across all three. two of the residences sit within a 1938 spanish hacienda, restored with a light hand and finished properly: sub-zero and wolf, single-level layouts, 2 bedrooms and 2 baths across roughly 1,500 sf each. period character intact, systems and surfaces current. the third unit is its own building. a 2017 contemporary, reached through the gated drive, opens into a two-level volume that reads more gallery than residence. exquisite surfaces stone underfoot, 12-inch french white oak in the living areas, custom metal and millwork throughout. the kitchen centers on a european stone island with sub-zero drawers and gaggenau and miele appliances. vola fittings, slab showers, custom stone vanities. its private roof deck, accessible only from this residence, is the address′s real signature: ipe decking, fire pit, outdoor kitchen, spa and shower, built-in audio, and city and hillside views that open up the moment you reach the top.
