About This Property

Set back from the street on its own private promontory, this exquisite Mid-Century modern masterpiece offers the perfect blending of light, texture, and form in a highly livable space with unobstructed, sweeping canyon and city light views. Originally designed by the iconic case study architect Rodney Walker and recently reimagined by architect and prior owner Michael Gralla, this single level home boasts 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms plus detached studio situated on a generous lot spanning just under two thirds of an acre. Upon entering through a gated courtyard, you are greeted by light-filled spaces from numerous skylights and windows, complemented by flamed granite flooring, exposed warm wood ceilings and a seamless open floor plan. The main living area is comprised of a sitting area, a gracious living room and an inviting dining area all overlooking the verdant yard and views. Off the public rooms is a gourmet cook's kitchen, a culinary delight, featuring high-end stainless appliances, Snaidero cabinetry and an adjoining breakfast area warmed by a contemporary fireplace. The bedrooms, set on either end of the house for complete privacy and convenience, include a sumptuous primary suite with floor to ceiling windows, gracious bath and extra-large closet plus two-family bedrooms (one presently being used as office) sharing a chic modern bath. The rear of the house opens through numerous glass-paneled doors to a convivial patio, dining area and expansive verdant garden of succulents, fruit trees and various plants, perfect for lounging the day away with a good book or entertaining your friends with al fresco dining under the stars. The property also includes a detached and light-filled studio, constructed with floor to ceiling windows and structural insulated panels for strength and energy-efficiency, perfect for a gym, home office, yoga studio, or art studio. Additional features include newer multi-zone HVAC, direct-access two car garage, separate laundry room, EV charger and abundant off-street parking. Don't miss this rare opportunity to embrace the epitome of modern living in this architectural marvel.
