Retire to your own private retreat, set back high above the street, just out of reach from the hustle & bustle, yet still within striking distance of the vibrant heart of Highland Park. EL RETIRO is a fully reimagined and newly expanded Modern California Ranch, resting upon a verdant knoll and blending beautifully and seamlessly into the hillside. Original exposed wooden beams and vintage lattice-style farmhouse door deliver so much charm and character, while all brand new systems, custom kitchen, and redesigned bathrooms, with terrazzo-style porcelain floors, make everyday living a delight. With big mountain and treetop views facing due west, warm golden light and spectacular sunsets pour in through the large picture windows and unfold across the front deck every evening. This peaceful refuge captures that rare and coveted alchemy--an elevated and quiet escape that sits only a couple of blocks away from the hottest new stretch of York Blvd, home of acclaimed and popular: Queen's Raw Bar & Grill, Kumquat, Fondry, Bagel + Slice, Skaf's on York, and femme favorite, Vinovore. The picturesque and idyllic Occidental College campus is also just down the street. Make this home yours!
