Pacific Palisades Mid Century Modern house by Architect Pierre Koenig. The Beagles House built in 1963, is an iconic property in the hills of Pacific Palisades. The simple geometric volumes that define the home exhibit the essential character-defining mid century modernism. With breathtaking ocean views stretching from the Palisades to Palos Verdes and beyond to Catalina Island, the property embodies all that is southern California living.

This fine example of mid-century modern architecture is truly a work of art. The home is in pristine original condition, left just as the architect intended, celebrating all of the design elements Koenig envisioned for the space. It remains a timeless masterpiece that feels as fresh and modern today as it did when it was first built.

Koenig was known for his rigorous, intellectual approach to design and his mastery of concrete, glass and steel. He was equally known for his appetite for challenging hillside sites. The Beagle House showcases his design intent and structural abilities to engineer a modern marvel.

Floor-to-ceiling glass walls on the main elevation of the home ensure that you’ll never miss an opportunity to enjoy the incredible ocean views. Every room connects directly to the exterior via large sliding doors, making it easy to bring the outdoors in and live the lifestyle dictated by the masters of mid century architecture. The inverted plan of the home is designed for the modern family. The street-level entrance leads directly to the main floor, with the living area below anchored by a wood-burning fireplace. This forward-thinking open concept plan is perfect for modern living and entertaining while large windows fill the space with natural light.

The upper level features the kitchen and dining room. The outdoor dining area directly off the kitchen is perfect for al fresco meals, while the sun deck off the lower level living room is the ideal spot for relaxing and taking in the beautiful coastline.

This is your chance to own a piece of history. The impeccably maintained Pierre Koenig home has all original finishes, including exposed structural steel, book-matched cabinetry, hardwood floors and vintage Formica. Imagine waking up every day in this work of art. Morning coffee on the sun deck and a nightcap watching the coastal lights in front of a roaring fire simply superb!
