There are homes in Los Angeles that give you more space. And then there are properties that make you forget you're in Los Angeles altogether. Welcome to 1752 Riverside Drive, a private equestrian retreat tucked into Glendale's beloved Riverside Rancho. Set across approximately 1.25 acres alongside Griffith Park, the property feels worlds away from the city beyond its gates- mature trees, open grounds, horse stables, a pool and the kind of breathing room that has become increasingly rare. Built in 1941, the original home carries a warmth and charm all its own. An inviting living room opens to a fantastic entertaining bar that feels like a true nod to old Hollywood, which in turn flows into a beautiful family room. A comfortable, country-style eat-in kitchen and dining room with a wood-paneled ceiling add to the home's warmth, while rich colors throughout set the tone. The jaguar green primary suite, complete with a generous walk-in closet and updated bathroom, rounds out a residence built for a comfortable equestrian lifestyle. Outside is where the property truly becomes something special: a private pool and spa, guest accommodations, four-car garage, covered stables, barn and tack storage, and a generous riding arena, with Griffith Park's legendary trail system practically in your backyard. For those looking to expand the property even further, the seller has secured approved architectural plans and permits for a three-bedroom, two-bathroom addition, giving the next owner a head start on expanding this already exceptional estate. Formerly owned by Oscar-nominated actor Ralph Bellamy, the property carries a bit of old Hollywood history, but its appeal today is something even harder to replicate: privacy, land and an authentic equestrian lifestyle within minutes of studios, dining, shopping and the rest of Los Angeles. Not simply a home, but an entirely different way to live in the city.
