The upper unit also features an additional bonus room that can be used as an office space. Both units provide walk-in closets with vanities, bathrooms with separate tub and shower, spacious eat-in kitchens with extensive cabinetry, dedicated laundry rooms, and oversized bedrooms.

The property is located on a tree-lined street and is described as being near houses of worship, Larchmont Village, Museum Row, The Grove, Pan Pacific Park, and restaurants and shops along La Brea.
