A One-of-a-Kind Designer Home in the Heart of Echo Park’s Elysian Heights
Welcome to 1556 Lemoyne Street — a serene modern treehouse thoughtfully reimagined by the acclaimed architecture studio OWIU and featured in Dwell, domino, Design Milk, and Sunset. Nestled among mature landscaping and a striking cacti forest, this residence offers the perfect blend of privacy, style, and functionality.
Large picture windows flood the open-concept living spaces with natural light and frame lush, verdant views from every room. Designed with a seamless indoor-outdoor flow, the home embraces natural materials, clean lines, and warm organic textures throughout.
At the heart of the home, a chef’s kitchen by Danish kitchen brand Reform impresses with oak and cedar cabinetry, a skylight, and minimalist finishes that exude understated elegance.
The primary bedroom, enclosed with handmade shoji screens, features a custom raised platform for a serene and cohesive environment. The spa-like bathroom is finished with Heath ceramic tile and a deep soaking tub, offering a calming retreat after a long day. A spacious second bedroom completes the main home, providing flexibility for guests, an office, or a growing household.
Expansive living and dining areas open directly onto a generous outdoor deck equipped with a built-in fire feature — perfect for year-round entertaining under the stars.
Detached Studio, Outdoor Spaces, and Unforgettable Views
A detached cedar-clad studio sits just steps from the main house, complete with a built-in desk and cushioned seating — ideal for a creative workspace, office, or yoga retreat.
Above the home, a second deck captures sweeping canyon and city views, making it the perfect spot to savor morning coffee or enjoy unforgettable sunsets.
Situated in one of Echo Park’s most coveted pockets, this special property is walking distance to beloved neighborhood favorites like Lady Byrd Café, Echo Park Lake, Cookbook Market, and Canyon Coffee — with easy access to Dodger Stadium and downtown Los Angeles.
