About this home

Striking, extensively remodeled single story Mid-Century Modern done by acclaimed Los Angeles architect Marmol Radziner on a 26,080 square foot lot (per assessor's map), south of Sunset in prime Brentwood Park. Completed for the current owners (only the second residents in its 69 year history), this architectural gem, set well off the street beyond a large motor court features signature elements of updated modern design: Large, open spaces, floor-to-ceiling windows that bring the outdoors in, clean lines, entertaining space paneled in book-matched walnut, three fireplaces, rich hardwood and cork floors, and extensive built-in bookcases and other millwork throughout -- including an awe inspiring large scale Walnut room divider in the living room. All important spaces, including kitchen/breakfast room, living room, dining room and primary suite open through large scale sliding metal doors to entertaining terrace with outdoor fireplace, expansive yard, pool, spa and lush gardens. There are five bedrooms and seven baths in the main house, including an exceptional owner's suite with spacious bath, dual fitted closets, and lovely views of the garden. Poolside is a self-contained detached guest house that features two bedrooms, living room/pool cabana, dining room and kitchen, and two twin Murphy pull-down bunk beds. Other spaces and amenities include a cozy library den with bookshelves, separate office, children's playroom, library hallway with floor to ceiling bookcases, butler's pantry, mudroom and oversized laundry room. Delightfully unexpected details like a retractable outdoor movie screen and secret children's play spaces. Wonderful drama, detail, quality of workmanship and materials throughout. A rare one-story home with a timeless, yet fresh and whimsical aesthetic in Brentwood's most desirable neighborhood -- close to town, the farmer's market and the bike path! Everything a California house should be!
