531 Hillside Avenue

One of only two homes on a quiet cul-de-sac off an iconic winding Eastside lane, this hilltop hideaway enjoys an enviable private perch with a view of historic rooftops, mountains and foothills, and clear blue skies. The property's gated drive ascends to a spacious parking area that accompanies a three-bedroom home with a carport and an idyllic courtyard, a generous guest casita, and a versatile light-filled studio. The main residence marries stylish living, dining, and entertaining spaces with a cook's kitchen, a rare greenhouse or solarium, a main-level guest bedroom and bath, an upper-floor guest bedroom with a balcony, and an owner's suite that includes a sitting room or library with a foothills-facing balcony and a spa-inspired bath with a "wet room" tub and shower. Ceiling beams and vigas, colorful tilework, kiva fireplaces, numerous skylights and French doors, and warm earthy hues contribute to the sophisticated Southwestern ambience. The landscaped courtyard features a flagstone terrace, a portal, and a picturesque view. The separate studio will delight artists but can also serve as a workshop, fitness, or meditation space. Short- or long-term guests will appreciate the lofty bedroom and living space of the casita, which also offers a well-outfitted kitchen, a fashionable bath, and a laundry area. The coveted location is walking distance from the Plaza, Canyon Road, and other attractions and amenities of downtown and the historic Eastside.
