2501 Kenilworth Ave – Silver Lake Spanish Revival Home for Sale
A classic 1929 Spanish Revival in the heart of Moreno Highlands
Set privately and elevated from the street in the coveted Moreno Highlands, this character-rich Spanish Revival circa 1929 offers a rare blend of architectural integrity, thoughtful updates, and an exceptional Silver Lake location. A front gate opens to a lush, tranquil courtyard filled with trumpet vines and a mature shade tree, creating an immediate sense of calm and arrival.
Inside, the living room is a true showstopper with soaring 12-foot beamed ceilings, warm original wood floors with inlay, and beautifully preserved built-ins. French casement windows flood the space with natural light while framing leafy garden views, highlighting the craftsmanship and timeless appeal found throughout the home.
Updated interiors that honor original Spanish details
A gracious formal dining room overlooks the living space and flows seamlessly into the updated chef’s kitchen. Here, modern appliances, charming tilework, and a generous central island make the kitchen equally suited for daily living and entertaining. The layout unfolds gracefully, with bedrooms curving along both sides of the home to create privacy and an easy, intuitive flow.
The primary suite features a meticulously renovated bathroom and a full wall of custom built-in closets. A front bedroom with an en-suite bath enjoys verdant views and built-in cabinetry, while a third en-suite bedroom tucked off the kitchen works beautifully as a guest suite or home office.
Outdoor living and den space ideal for Silver Lake living
A spacious den opens directly to the terraced backyard, where a large grassy lawn and tiled patios create a magical outdoor setting. Whether hosting dinner under the trees, enjoying playtime on the lawn, or winding down in the evening, the outdoor spaces feel private, serene, and deeply connected to the home. A two-car garage completes the property.
