Reimagined Home from ‘A Nightmare on Elm Street’ Lists in Hollywood | 1428 N Genesee Ave.

Just in time for Halloween and just south of Sunset Boulevard, the iconic home of “Nancy Thompson” in Wes Craven’s legendary slasher A Nightmare on Elm Street hits the market in Hollywood’s Spaulding Square neighborhood. Offers are due by midnight on October 31st!

Step into the lovely 3 bedroom, 3.5-bathroom, 2-story main house and notice circular archways that lead to the formal dining room to your right.

And another to an office space with calming views of the front garden.

Throughout the home, you will find gorgeous walnut wood floors, beautiful built-ins, natural light, modern updates, and countless French doors that seamlessly connect the indoors with the luxe garden and pool spaces, not to mention the one bedroom guest house.

The open retro-modern kitchen has a breakfast space, stainless steel appliances, open shelving, a large eat-in island, and easy outdoor access.

There’s a convenient half bath on the main floor ideal for guests.

Upstairs, you will find the grand primary suite which features plenty of bright, natural light and tall ceilings.

The primary bedroom’s luxurious en suite bath has a wonderful soaking tub, duel sinks, a skylight, and plenty of storage.

Plus a massive walk-in closet provides plenty of space for your wardrobe.

Something you may not have noticed over the years of viewing the Elm Street films is 1428 N Genesee Avenue’s generous patios, terraces, and picture windows.

Both the second and third bedrooms in the main house are nicely sized with rows of picture windows.

Each of the bedrooms have their own en suite baths.

While the larger of the two secondary bedrooms has its own walk-in closet.

Step outside and you might be surprised to find a glistening blue pool, green grass, and fragrant citrus trees, offering an ideal indoor/outdoor Southern California lifestyle.

The detached guest house is absolutely perfect for overnight or long term guests, or to be used as your very own writers retreat if you plan to write the reboot or sequel of the famed Elm Street franchise. A Nightmare on Elm Street was produced and released by New Line in 1984. The resulting franchise was New Line’s first commercially successful series, leading the company to be nicknamed “The House that Freddy Built.” The film was made on a budget of $1.8 million, grossed over $57 million, and inspired (some might say spawned) countless films after it.

The guest house offers the home’s fourth bedroom and fourth full bath.

The kitchen has been updated and is sleek, yet simple providing plenty of style while still being totally functional.

And the guest house’s bath is sure to charm and impress.

This elegant traditional was reimagined by an English designer in the mid-2000s. Located in the heart of Historic Spaulding Square by the Griddle Cafe, Pace Joint, Bristol Farms, Whole Foods, Enigma Coffee, Electric Owl, Orange Theory, Laugh Factory and the newest addition to the neighborhood, Horses. One of Los Angeles’s most iconic film facade locations is ready for its next installment.

I would love to give you a private tour of 1428 N Genesee Avenue in Spaulding Square. Call me today at (323) 697-3040 or email me at jacqueline.tager@sothebyshomes.com.
