About 785 S El Molino Ave
Welcome to the Madison Heights dream house that has it all. Even before you fall in love with this gorgeous, Reginald Johnson designed Colonial Revival masterpiece, it's the idyllic neighborhood that'll first capture your heart. Celebrated as one of the most picturesque pockets in all of Los Angeles, the iconic 'Father of the Bride House' and 'Draper Residence' are both just a few doors away. Adding to the neighborhood's storybook charm, the 'Pillsbury House' at 785 S El Molino Ave, once owned by Alice Pillsbury of the famed flour milling company, rests on a large corner lot and provides everything you need to savor life's most joyful chapter yet.

As you enter, discover an extensively updated home meant to be filled with laughter, memories, and love. From the stunning original hardwood floors, to the perfectly designed layout, to the abundance of natural light that spills into each room, an air of casual elegance is present throughout and nothing is left to be desired. Highlights of the main level include the beautifully appointed dream kitchen with Carrera marble and German appliances along with the window-wrapped family room where game nights and movie marathons will become treasured traditions. One bedroom rests at the rear and three more are found upstairs, including the private owner's suite which occupies its own wing. The backyard, affectionately named 'Party Central' by the current owners, is fully equipped with everything you need to create unforgettable memories.
