Welcome to Villa Roselyn, one of the finest homes in Silver Lake’s coveted Moreno Highlands neighborhood. Located in the hills above the Silver Lake Reservoir, Villa Roselyn is a Spanish Revival home built in 1924 that has jaw-dropping views from every window but especially from its stunning rooftop deck.


Re-envisioned in 2015 by the acclaimed duo HSU McCullough, AIA, this beautiful home features original wrought-iron gate and handrails and a grand 1800s entry door imported all the way over from Spain during this meticulous and visionary renovation.

Enter into a light and bright living room with Spanish accents, gorgeous Italian marble built-ins, and a truly one-of-a-kind fireplace.

The fireplace has fascinating vintage Malibu tiles that are original to when the home was built. Thank goodness they have been left untouched over the decades.

Through pairs of French doors, the living room leads to a lovely family den.

The den is currently used as a dual office space and includes built-in desks and bookshelves, a wood beamed ceiling, and easy outdoor access.

The 100% permitted renovation was absolutely major and cost just over one million dollars. Upgrdes and updates include a braced and bolted foundation and reinforced steel beam construction, tony white oak hardwood flooring, ABS outbound plumbing, and copper inbound, plus a brand new roof.

The sleek cook’s kitchen offers an excellent place to entertain with eat-in seating for many at its massive center island, plus soft close custom cabinetry, clerestory windows, unique lighting fixtures, and Italian marble countertops and backsplash.

Just off the kitchen is dining space, and don’t forget to notice the aforementioned nearly 200 year old front door from Spain.

This extraordinary renovation also includes an entirely new level that consists completely of the new primary suite. The addition added 644 square feet to the home’s footprint. With an entire wall adorned with oversized double pane windows that frame incredible views that stretch all the way to the observatory, this is the kind of primary suite you will not soon want to depart.

The primary’s en suite bathroom is glorious and includes dual sinks, Italian marble countertops, a relaxing soaking tub, a romantic standalone shower, a crystal chandelier, and treetop views.

Just off the primary bedroom, walk through the beautiful glass sliding door to an amazing rooftop deck and an oversized copper hot tub that is downright luxurious. It’s the ideal perch to soak in the tranquil canyon views that stretch all the way to the Pacific on a clear day, pink moment sunsets, and the glistening stars at night.

Down one level is the second of the four bedrooms which has its own private terrace.

The terrace has treetop, canyon, and neighborhood views.

The second bedroom is ideal for guests.

While the third makes an adorable nursery.

The three bedrooms on this level share a gorgeous marble bath, while there is a powder room on the main level for guests.

The sizable backyard is the perfect spot to entertain. Impress friends and family with views of both the Hollywood sign and the Observatory.

The original outdoor fireplace provides a relaxing and Bohemian east side vibe.

Other highlights? Brand new solar panels were installed in 2021 and cut the electricity bill to 1/5th of the usual cost. The dual-zone HVAC systems are both energy efficient heat pump systems connected to the solar which also dramatically reduce costs. Lutron Lighting up / down thermostat controls and automatic shades connect to your phone app as well as the Sonos sound system in almost every room. Plus, for those who need a lot of storage, an additional 450 square feet of storage was built into the two car garage and can be accessed by a pull-down ladder.

With neighbors including a bevy of notable 20th-century gems including John Lautner’s 1956 Silvertop—a feat of engineering known for its UFO-like concrete roof— 2280 Panorama Terrace stands apart with its extraordinarily stylish and measured reinvention.
