Mount Washington Architectural Retreat | LA Views

This sustainable Mount Washington retreat is an all-electric, design-forward home created in partnership with Home Front Build. It sits above a terraced hillside with citrus trees and has a private gated entry away from the main residence. Large windows frame sweeping views of Los Angeles the moment you walk in. Natural materials and thoughtful design support a calm, creative living space perfect for 1 to 2 guests seeking quiet, inspiration, and connection to nature.

Welcome to Paradise de Rocas Antiguas!

This rare Mount Washington hideaway feels like a private world of its own. The home has its own separate entry from a quiet road above the main residence. A private gate and clear separation between the two structures create a peaceful living experience.

Walk inside and the views open immediately. The home sits under a beautiful oak tree and is built directly into the hillside rock. This helps the home stay cool in the summer and warm in the winter. Light flows through large windows and creates a soft, calm environment that feels perfect for artists, writers, designers, or anyone who wants to live close to nature.

The interiors follow a fully sustainable design philosophy. Everything inside was created with wellness and environmental care in mind. Natural plaster walls, VOC-free finishes, Paperstone countertops, and locally made tiles bring a grounded, warm feeling to the home. Built-in furniture and custom pieces add to the clean, curated aesthetic.

This is an all-electric home with no fossil fuel systems. Solar panels, efficient heat pumps, and natural cross ventilation help maintain comfort and lower energy use. The home stays quiet, cool, and peaceful without the need for heavy mechanical systems.

Outside, a terraced landscape with citrus trees and native plants surrounds the property. Built stonework and handcrafted details blend the home into the hillside and honor the architecture of historic Mount Washington. The outdoor space offers fresh air, soft light, and a strong connection to the natural world.

This home was thoughtfully created in collaboration with Home Front Build, a local design-build firm known for custom residential projects, with interiors and wellness elements curated by CarbonShack, featuring intentional design and products throughout the space.

The home has its own separate entry from a quiet road above the main residence. A private gate and clear separation between the two structures create a peaceful living experience.
