This full-blown dreamboat of a Streamline Moderne is docked, so to speak, south of Los Feliz Boulevard on a roughly 7,100-square-foot lot. From its front balcony, there is an unobstructed view of the Griffith Observatory.

Details dating to the house’s 1938 origin remain, including a chic, carved wooden bannister and a richly wood paneled den with built-in shelves. Glass blocks dot the house, from the bathrooms to the entryway.

Communal spaces, like the living room downstairs, feature a wealth of windows, bringing sunlight in and allowing for vistas of the verdant landscaped backyard, where there is a brand new deck. Another large balcony overlooks the rear yard.

4966 Ambrose Avenue holds four bedrooms and four bathrooms in 3,197 square feet. It’s listed for $2 million.
