Who wants to buy the least expensive house in Bel Air? And what if I told you it was listed for under $1 million?
Check out my Friday Find!
Tucked away in Beverly Glen Canyon, this charming little cabin was built in 1926, making it 100 years old in 2026.
But before you get to the front door, there’s one thing you should know.
You have to climb 27 steps to reach the house. Yes, I counted!
A Cozy Cabin in Bel Air
Walking inside feels like the perfect place to cozy up on a cold fall or winter day, which is funny because when I toured it, the temperature outside was about 100 degrees!
The home is arranged across two levels, with plenty of character packed into its compact footprint.
Upstairs, the main living area features a family room with an exposed wood A-frame ceiling, a kitchen, a built-in dining nook, a bathroom, and even a Murphy bed for overnight guests.
The wood ceilings and cabin-style details give the space a cozy, almost mountain-retreat feeling, even though you’re right in Los Angeles.
A Private Patio Surrounded by Greenery
Head outside and downstairs, and you’ll find a cute little patio surrounded by greenery.
The lower level also includes the bedroom and another bathroom.
It’s a unique layout, with the main living spaces upstairs and the bedroom tucked below.
And while the 27 steps to reach the house might not work for everyone, the setting is part of what makes this property interesting.
A Bel Air Home for Under $1 Million?
Here’s where things get interesting.
At the time I filmed this Friday Find, the median sold price for a home in Bel Air over the previous three months was $5.3 million.
So finding a home listed for under $1 million in this market certainly gets your attention.
This 1926 Beverly Glen Canyon cabin was listed for $899,000, making it the least expensive home for sale in Bel Air at the time of my tour.
Of course, this isn’t your typical Bel Air estate. It’s a small canyon home with stairs, a two-level layout, and plenty of vintage character.
But that’s also what makes it different.
Would you buy this little Bel Air cabin for $899,000?
