Lautner used natural woods in many of his residences. This home is no exception. Yellow stucco and natural redwood were the original finishes of the house.

Natural ventilation was created by sloping the ceiling over the two-level main living space so that the warm air would rise and exit above the kitchen.

A patio just outside the kitchen & dining area expands indoor/outdoor flow. 2 bd/2 ba + bonus/bd, original built-ins, fireplace in living room, & views of the surrounding hills.

This is your chance to own a piece of history from one of the most iconic architects to build in Los Angeles.
