About This Home

As of August 2021

Under a canopy of mature oak trees, on a magical 16,500+ flag lot, this unspoiled Mid-Century Modern premieres for the first time ever on the market. Tucked away down a long, gated driveway, this uniquely private property presents an opportunity of a lifetime; the offering of an exquisitely and classically designed architectural home on dreamy, verdant grounds with breathtaking views. The home itself is secluded behind an oversized, finished garage + motor court, remaining completely unnoticed from the street. An awe-inspiring courtyard hypnotizes as the home and land harmonize. A formal two-story beamed foyer showcases a clean, minimalist aesthetic, an emphasis on bringing the outdoors in, and the presence of angular design. Crisp, spacious living spaces highlight the integrity of the original design with the original built-ins and hardware, period lighting, and huge flat-paneled leaded glass windows, all while integrating recent updates and modern conveniences: solar power, new central HVAC, freshly refinished hardwood floors, new cork flooring, and new appliances. The views from the four bedrooms upstairs soothe, each offering different exposure to the sunlight cycles dappled through the treetops. From Century City to LMU, from the Santa Monica mountain range to the Pacific ocean and beyond, a natural glow warmly fills every space of this home. The master suite commands top-of-the-hill westerly views over Venice Beach and Marina del Rey with sun-soaked ocean views by day and dazzling Queens Necklace coastal lights by night. The park-like grounds are a marvel, a gardener's paradise attracting birds and butterflies. Endless space to add a pool for a complete backyard sanctuary. Perfectly located in the Mar Vista Elementary school district, close to the Recreation Center and Farmer's Market. Built by the current owners in 1961, this architectural delight has been lovingly and meticulously maintained by only one family for generations, celebrating a true moment in time.
