Redwood Cubes, City Views, and Walking Distance to Lake Hollywood
Created as a series of redwood-clad cubic structures built into the hillside overlooking Hollywood, this Richard Neutra original has earned modern architectural lauds for decades. The 1941 classic, a Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Landmark designated home, features three bedrooms and two bathrooms, a sunlit, wood-paneled living room with a fireplace, and the architect’s trademark ribbon windows and sliding glass door panels opening out to a scenic flagstone patio.
A professional-quality kitchen offers a 21st-century touch under an Alvar Aalto Beehive pendant lamp, as do the leafy outdoor areas, landscaped and set with furnishings for a classic California-living experience. Outdoor living zones extend from each traditional modernist indoor space, with views of Hollywood as well as the LA hills and canyons.
Around
Angled into a sloping green hillside lot with southwest views of the Hollywood Hills and the city lights of Los Angeles glimmering below, the house offers a classic, mid-century California modern experience. The home is on a quarter-acre lot in the historic Hollywood Dell neighborhood, walking distance to Lake Hollywood and Franklin Park, with the Santa Monica Mountains rising on the horizon. The primarily residential neighborhood was developed in the 1920s and over the years has been home to the Rolling Stones, Marilyn Manson, Marilyn Monroe, Goldie Hawn and Eva Longoria, among others. Named “the Dell” for its location tucked into the hills, the neighborhood offers easy access to Hollywood below, and a classic Los Angeles stay.
