Tucked away on the top of a hill in a secluded Bel Air neighborhood, this is the perfect location for anyone who wants to be close to but not right next to the highest of luxury in Los Angeles. Flanked between Westwood and Brentwood with close access to the 405, this home offers convenient passage to some of the best shopping and dining in the world, including the Sunset Strip, Beverly Hills's Golden Triangle, UCLA, the Brentwood Village, the Palisades Village, and Malibu. Situated in an enclosed neighborhood filled with well-maintained homes up to 80 years old and stunning newly constructed homes, 11500 Thurston is begging for a new owner to bring it back to its full glory. Built on flat land with a sloped driveway, this property can be transformed into a truly beautiful home with potential distant ocean views (if a second floor is added). This home was built in 1953 and retains a thoughtful layout representative of the time, and while not modern, it is not obsolete. This home has endless potential to be rehabbed or torn down and built anew. -----This home has 4 bedrooms (1 primary, 1 secondary, 2 office/bedrooms) and 4 bathrooms (1 en suite, 2 3/4-baths, and a poolhouse bathroom). -----This property is being sold as-is. The previous owner passed away in the home in 2024.
