Vidal Sassoon’s daughter Eden Sassoon listed her snug Los Angeles hideaway this week for $1.299 million. Ms. Sassoon has owned the cozy stucco cottage in Laurel Canyon for nearly a decade, having purchased it in 2010, for $700K.

From the street, the house is private and inviting, its white stucco ensconced in mature trees. Within, the home develops as an easygoing and unpretentious living space, with natural-toned plank and white walls and ceilings. There are two bedrooms and 1.75 baths in its 1,189 square feet of interiors.

The shared living space is open concept; not a huge amount of glass, but enough to reveal the green of the immediate landscape. A chandelier and an exposed beam help give definition.

The kitchen features an L-shaped counter, and longitudinal subway tile instead of the traditional latitudinal—ah, those Laurel Canyon bohemians. French doors open to a small deck, which gives way to a tree-shaded brick patio with a whitewashed brick fireplace and a raised planter.

The home’s lower level features the 3/4 bath, making it a potential family room or, if converted, a small apartment.
