The upper viewing deck captures panoramic views of Downtown Los Angeles, the Hollywood Sign, and the surrounding mountains. A Zen garden with a fountain creates a quiet retreat, while landscape lighting and outdoor speakers set the mood after sunset.Eight-foot doors throughout complement the home's architectural character.
