Overview

Set on one of the most aspirational homesites in Comstock Hills, 1717 Comstock Avenue is a rare 1920s Spanish residence offering commanding presence, privacy, scale, and authentic Los Angeles character. Elevated above the street on a promontory style lot measuring just over a quarter acre, this 4,035 square foot home features 4-bedrooms and 5-bathrooms and an unmistakable sense of arrival. The residence blends timeless Spanish architecture with a flexible, highly livable floor plan. Hardwood floors, tall ceilings, graceful proportions, abundant natural light, and generous formal and informal living spaces create the warmth and architectural soul that newer construction rarely captures. The primary suite is a true private retreat with a spacious walk in closet, private balcony, jetted soaking tub, and a versatile adjoining space ideal for an office, lounge, den, or nursery. Two additional upstairs bedrooms also open up to their own balcony. The kitchen is equipped for serious cooking and everyday living with a 36-inch Wolf range and built-in Sub-Zero refrigerator. Multiple bedroom suites and flexible living areas provide excellent options for guests, working from home, creative pursuits, or multigenerational living. The elevated setting creates exceptional privacy while the approximately 10,859 square foot lot provides room to entertain, landscape, reimagine, or enhance over time. Previously owned by three-time Olympic figure skating champion Sonja Henie, the property carries a unique connection to Hollywood history. Comstock Hills has long attracted buyers seeking architectural homes, privacy, substantial lots, and immediate proximity to Century City, Beverly Hills, Bel Air, UCLA, Westwood Village, Holmby Park, the Wilshire Corridor, and Westfield Century City. Recently appraised at $5,150,000 and priced at $4,995,000, 1717 Comstock Avenue presents a compelling opportunity to acquire an authentic Spanish character home with scale, history, expansion potential, and long term value in one of the Westside's most coveted residential enclaves.
