Situated high above the street in Whittier’s desirable Mar Vista Heights, this mid-century home offers a rare sense of privacy and peaceful hillside living. Built in 1963, the residence features four bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a spacious 2,053-square-foot open floorplan designed for comfort and flow. Inside, natural light pours into the expansive living and dining area through a full wall of windows that frame peek-a-boo city light views. A stunning stone fireplace with a terrazzo hearth adds warmth and architectural character to the space. The large primary suite is set apart from the other bedrooms, offering a private retreat complete with an ensuite bathroom. The kitchen opens to a cozy family room anchored by a classic corner brick fireplace, creating an inviting atmosphere for everyday living or entertaining. Outside, the generous backyard offers endless potential—whether you envision a pool, garden retreat, or possible ADU. Additional highlights include a gated breezeway connecting the home to a three-car garage, mature landscaping with established trees and shrubs, and system upgrades such as copper repiping, an updated electrical panel, newer HVAC system, dual pane windows and a 40-year roof. This is a rare opportunity to own a timeless home in one of Whittier’s most coveted neighborhoods, offering space, charm, and incredible potential.
