The exposed timber beams, the floor-to-ceiling glass, the seamless flow between inside and out: this is a house that was made to be lived in, deeply and well. Tucked into the hillside of Laurel Canyon, the heart of Los Angeles creativity, The Kimmelman House offers something increasingly rare: a property with genuine history, character, and soul. As featured in Dwell magazine, it has been recognized as one of the most compelling mid-century homes in the city.

The driveway and carport has enough room for 4 cars.

LIVING SPACES

A grand open-plan living and dining room with floor-to-ceiling glass on three sides, an original stone fireplace, and deep sofas surrounded by art, plants and books. Adjacent is a separate TV room with mid-century built-in timber banquette seating, a full wall of books, and its own intimate atmosphere. A piano is available for guests.

OUTDOORS

The outdoor spaces are as considered as the interior. A lap pool and hot tub sit at the heart of the property, surrounded by multiple terrace areas for dining and relaxing, an outdoor chiminea fireplace, a sculptural hillside garden of succulents and native plants, a ping pong table, and an outdoor shower — all enclosed by the natural beauty of the canyon.

KITCHEN

Original 1957 oak cabinetry in warm teak tones, Miele appliances, and Lelit espresso machine and grinder. The kitchen opens directly to the dining area - a generous, light-filled space with mid-century chairs and garden views on two sides. A proper cook's kitchen with real soul.

LAUNDRY ROOM

Separate laundry room with large washing machine and Miele dryer.

BEDROOM 1

A serene king bedroom with clerestory windows, and a floating wall separating the walk-in closet and en-suite shower room with toilet and basin.

BEDROOM 2

A generous double corner room enveloped by light on two sides. Includes wardrobe, built-in shelving and desk, and its own distinct character.

BEDROOM 3 — STUDIO

A beautifully designed home office with a pool-side outlook and south facing light. Doubles as a guest room with a trundle bed sleeping two, making it equally suited to visiting family or creative professionals on longer stays who need a dedicated workspace.

FAMILY BATHROOM

Bathtub and shower, double basin, toilet. Original mid-century cabinetry.

GUEST WASHROOM

Toilet and basin just off the living room near the front door.

GUEST HOUSE

Completely private from the main house yet just steps from the pool, the guest house is a fully self-contained architect-designed studio. Built with the same precision and material palette as the main residence: exposed timber beams, polished concrete floors, and glass on two sides opening onto the yard and pool terrace. Has its own bathroom with tub and shower, and a kitchenette.
