A wonderful example of midcentury post and beam architecture. Newer wood flooring, roof and HVAC. Open beam ceiling, mahogany cabinetry throughout, formica countertops, walls of glass. The house sits on 38,000+ square feet of Linda Vista earth. On the 4th of July, recline on your very own promontory and enjoy the fireworks at the Rose Bowl and points beyond. This is a very special, private, quiet residence that has had only two owners.

Hidden treasure in the Linda Vista Hills. Come see this warm and welcoming modern home on a very interesting grand size lot; over 8/10 of an acre on three levels, lower level, middle pad, and upper pad with frontage on Putney Road and frontage on Inverness. Hidden from neighbors up a winding driveway, this true wilderness home is surrounded by a majesty of trees and Zen like serenity with a seasonal stream trickling along one edge. The simple modern architecture is untouched, the achievement of the home's only owner. The great room features vaulted ceilings with open beams, a fireplace, mahogany cabinets, and walls of glass that look toward City lights, and Fourth of July fireworks. The lot is special with a trail leading behind the two car detached garage to the upper pad with magnificent views that include a look into the Rose Bowl. There may be potential for a larger home.
