A house built for its site- positioned atop the crest of a hill to offer unobstructed views of the Santa Monica Mountains to the north, scenic canyon views to the south, and maximum privacy for its gardens, patios, and decks. It was originally built in 1973, with a modernist design vocabulary that references The Sea Ranch in Northern California. The post-and-beam structure, with its steep shed roofs and vaulted ceilings reaching up to 14 feet in height, enhances the impression of openness and space. A dramatic corridor entryway divides the living and dining areas from the more private bedroom wing. Clerestory windows follow the roofline, delivering natural light in unexpected ways. Redwood decks found at both sides of the home are accessed via glass sliding doors, creating a continuity between indoors and out. To the south, a trellis shelters the interior and exterior dining areas from the afternoon sun. A barrel sauna, outdoor shower area, and storage room are nearby. From the southeast edge of the property, an extraordinary view of Downtown Los Angeles. The surrounding gardens are a combination of drought tolerant, native, and mediterranean plants including several citrus trees. The rare Topanga Canyon home with professional updating, newer systems, top of line kitchen equipment, double pane wood windows + doors, concrete paved drive, and an advertised square footage matching with the assessor's record. With its combination of thoughtful design and modern system updates, ocean breezes and nearby hiking trails- this home and location embody all of the most desirable attributes of Topanga living.
