Property Description

MID CENTURY FIXER - Designed by architects Harold Bissner & Harold Zook in the late 1940s and photographed by Julius Shulman after completion, this beautiful mid-century modern home is secluded high above the street in the midst of a large wooded street-to-street lot accessed via a long private drive. Sheltered by a grand 170 year old oak tree, the house is characterized by incredible indoor-outdoor flow with walls of floor-to-ceiling glass providing views of the lagoon swimming pool, terraced gardens and woods beyond. The voluminous interior living spaces have high ceilings,and wonderful natural light - yet enjoy total privacy.The original blueprint design drawings have been preserved and many original features of the house are evident such as the serpentine stone staircase, desert-stone fireplace and oak floors. The house requires further restoration and architectural plans are available for a contemporary addition sited on a large flat building pad above the existing house.
