This Spanish Castle is a Feast for the Senses
04 Mar 2021711 E. Mountain St., Glendale, CA 91207 Got to tour this exquisite, breathtaking, perfectly impractical 1936 Spanish Castle in Glendale’s equally beautiful Rossmoyne Historic District. Priced at $1,469,000, this beauty is perched regally atop a knoll were it rightfully belongs. Previously the home of a famed Disney artist, this magical home captures all your senses and doesn’t let go. While it’s 50 glorious steps to the front door, it’s utterly worth it. Embraced by treetops and with beautiful landings on which to rest on the way up, it feels as if you’re going somewhere truly magical, like out of a fairytale. Once you arrive you’re greeted by a pristine home from another time and place. It features gorgeous original floors, vintage windows, built-ins including an original built-in kitchen and endless romantic arches and paths to secret gardens — fit for an artist who’s job it is to create magic. Then there are the views! Two spacious terraces on each side of the house to take in sweeping views of both Glendale and Downtown LA. For more information, contact Vanessa Yan. 711 E.

Before you start favoriting homes on Redfin or picking out patio furniture, the very first thing you have to do is — take a deep breath. Really. Buying a home in the Eastside of L.A. — the most intense region in all of Southern California, is not for the faint of heart. There will be drama and sometimes, a few tears. My role as your agent is to take as many of those bumps for you, be your neutral sounding board, voice of reason, strategist, therapist, cheerleader and friend in what will probably be one of the most exhilarating experiences of your life, outside of marriage and kids. I’m here to make it as fun and memorable as possible, for all the best reasons. After you’ve decided to work with me 😊 the most important next step is to reach out to a lender to find out 1) what you can get pre-approved for and more importantly, 2) determine…

2020 in Los Angeles By the Numbers…
31 Dec 2020…and 2 kids under 6, 1 husband, homeschooling, 2 pets, 1 global pandemic and 0 childcare 😂. Thank you to my wonderful clients who made 2020 one of the most memorable years ever! Despite the circumstances, you persevered—be it buying a new home to plant roots or a home sale that opened doors to new adventures. Being part of your journey and joy on closing day has been one of the great honors of my life. Even after 17 years of selling homes from Silver Lake to Glendale and Eagle Rock to Highland Park, the deep feeling of shared happiness has not diminished, nor has the overwhelming gratitude for your trust, glowing reviews and of course, the highest compliment of all—the referrals of your friends and families so that I might help them find their way home. Thank you and Happy 2021! Ready to make 2021 be the year you finally do it? Let’s chat!
