The story
- Pool
One of the most spectacular mid century houses on the market today on the most desirable stretch of golf frontage in LA. Designed by lauded architect Paul Wuesthoff, the house sits perched on "the rim" of the Riviera golf and Tennis club with head on views of the 4th, 5th, 7th, 8th and 17th fairways with a clear view of the green on the 15th. The perfect spot to sit and enjoy the view as the 2028 Olympics unfold in your own backyard. Taken down to the studs and rebuilt with entirely new systems, the house has soaring tongue and groove ceilings with clerestory windows and walls of glass that define the era. As you enter through the auto gate to the motor court, you're greeted by the first and highest of 5 waterfalls that cascade into multiple koi filled ponds all connected by a rambling stream. The grounds, designed by legendary landscape firm Eckbo, Dean, Austin & Williams, hold 18 massive redwoods, Canary Island pines and a verdant assortment of foliage that unfurls directly to the course's 4th and 5th holes. Inside, floor-to-ceiling glass runs through nearly every room with most opening onto a private deck or patio. Chevron- patterned solid hardwood floors flow throughout and 3 wood burning fireplaces anchor the spaces. The fully remodeled gourmet chef's kitchen and family room are outfitted with top-of-the-line appliances built for everyday life and serious entertaining alike. Even the elevator is it's own architectural moment - a round glass cab that descends through the branches of a massive redwood, delivering you to a plush and moody media room below. Outside is a sanctuary of it's own: pool, hot tub, cabana, an outdoor fireplace, a fire pit and built-in BBQ and a deck with a peekaboo view of the Pacific Ocean. A beautiful, private guest house sits among it's own forested landscaping, with sweeping views of it's own. A rare architectural pedigree, fully modernized and tucked into one of LA's most coveted neighborhoods.
