Originally designed in 1953 by celebrated Mid Century Modern architect Gregory Ain, The Feldman Residence is a remarkable expression of Southern California modernism, thoughtfully revitalized for contemporary living. Set on just under an acre of lush, private grounds near the Beverly Hills Hotel, the residence combines architectural pedigree with an extraordinary sense of seclusion in the heart of Los Angeles.
The Feldman Residence reflects the progressive residential ideas that defined Gregory Ain’s contribution to California modern architecture. Known for his human-centered approach to modernism, Ain designed homes around flexibility, openness and the relationship between architecture and everyday life. Here, those principles remain evident in the home’s connection to its landscape and its effortless indoor-outdoor character.
Expanded beyond the original 1953 structure, the residence has evolved into a substantial modern estate while maintaining a dialogue with Gregory Ain’s original design. The additions respect the architectural character of the home and the natural contours of its setting, creating spaces that feel both dramatic and intimately connected to the surrounding gardens.
The expansive primary suite functions almost as a private residence of its own. A striking three-sided floating fireplace wall anchors the space alongside a private kitchen and generously scaled dual bathrooms. Calacatta stone, separate showers and a serene Zen courtyard introduce a refined material palette while walls of glass extend the experience toward a shimmering zero-edge pool.
The primary bath continues the sense of retreat with dual dressing rooms, separate Toto water closets and an oversized soaking tub beneath a dramatic ceiling-mounted waterfall feature. Throughout the residence, moments of privacy, openness and architectural drama create an atmosphere that feels distinctly Los Angeles yet removed from the city beyond.
Today, The Feldman Residence by Gregory Ain offers a rare opportunity to experience significant Mid Century Modern architecture within one of Los Angeles’ most coveted residential settings. Private, expansive and deeply connected to its landscape, the home allows its residents to hide in plain sight while remaining moments from the cultural, dining and lifestyle destinations of Beverly Hills and greater Los Angeles.
