2561 Glen Green Street, Los Angeles, CA 90068

Property Description

A rare hilltop building site in historic Beachwood Canyon: three-quarters of an acre (32,747 SF per assessor) above Hollywood, with the Hollywood Sign to the north and sweeping views south over Hollywood and downtown, out to the ocean and Catalina on clear days. Opportunities this size, this private and this close to the heart of the city rarely come to market in Hollywood Hills East. The site is reached through a recorded, perpetual driveway easement from Glen Green Street, climbing between neighboring homes to a secluded lot with no through traffic. Zoned LAR1 and offered as a builder's or end user's site, it comes with an unusually deep record of work already done.Proven buildable. A full plan check for a custom hillside home was approved by LADBS in March 2021 after clearing all 23 required clearances, including LAFD fire access and hydrant, the Hillside Ordinance, a Zoning Administrator case, protected trees, sewer availability and the haul route. That approval has since lapsed, but the record shows the City has already said yes to building here.Room to build. A 2022 surveyed slope analysis puts the maximum residential floor area at approximately 10,313 SF, leaving generous room for a 5,000 to 6,000 SF residence with a studio and pool. The 2018 geotechnical report found massive bedrock with no landslides or groundwater encountered, and permits conventional spread footings where bedrock is shallow, with short friction piles elsewhere.A complete feasibility package is available to qualified buyers: the 2021 architectural and structural plan set, the slope analysis, the geotechnical report, the lot line adjustment map and the full LADBS clearance record, plus conceptual renderings of a contemporary home stepping up the hillside.The setting is classic Hollywoodland: winding canyon streets, 1920s storybook and Spanish homes, hiking trails to the Hollywood Sign and Griffith Park, and the Beachwood Canyon village with its market and cafe at the bottom of the hill. Minutes to the 101, Los Feliz, Silver Lake, the Hollywood Bowl and Sunset Boulevard, with easy reach of downtown and the Westside.Build the view home you have been waiting for, on one of the last large hilltop parcels in the canyon. Shown by appointment only; please do not walk the property or the driveway without an agent.
