About This Home

As of September 2022

Mid-Century classic, single family custom home designed and built by Dennis G. Smith, AIA, for himself in 1966. Dennis G. Smith later became a partner of the well-known architectural firm, Buff and Hensman, now Buff, Smith and Hensman. The firm designed many custom homes around the Southern California area and won more than 30 awards for home designs from the American Institute of Architects. This home was featured in the August 1968 edition of Home Magazine. The large wood deck beautifully wraps around the living areas and is situated in the midst of the branches of two large avocado trees. Exposed tongue-and-groove roof decking adds warmth and texture. Wood is used extensively throughout the house, establishing a pleasant architectural rhythm. There are also custom built-ins throughout the home. Beautiful garden areas are located on both sides of the property, which enhance the architecture and offer an unmatched horticultural experience with numerous varieties of plants. The master bedroom suite includes a private patio off the bathroom. A large storage room/office with deep built-in cabinetry at rear of carport, vented to central heating and air system, perfect for a home office or hobby room. This home sits on a large 8,900/sf, secluded, corner lot. This is truly a beautiful home.
