Tucked behind a private bridge where the creek flows beneath a canopy of mature trees, 639 Hightree Road is one of two rare undeveloped lots in beloved Rustic Canyon available individually or together with neighboring 641 Hightree Road. Each sits off quiet Hightree Road, embraced by hillsides once home to a 1920s open-air amphitheater that echoed with poetry readings. In 1979, Ray Kappe envisioned a soaring mid-century masterpiece here plans approved but never built leaving today's dreamer a remarkable blank canvas. Build ~5,000 sq ft on a single lot, or up to 10,800 sq ft across both. 641 offers 16,796 sq ft; 639 offers 16,184 sq ft32,981 sq ft total. A chance to create an enduring work of art in one of L. A. 's most storied settings.

Rustic Canyon, located between Santa Monica Canyon and Brentwood, is a residential and nature-forward Los Angeles neighborhood with winding canyon roads and a creekside greenbelt. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along Rustic Canyon Park’s paths and bridges, where dog walkers, trail runners, and picnickers share the shade of sycamores. Architecture leans to mid-century homes, contemporary rebuilds, and tucked-away cottages set behind mature landscaping. Canyon breezes and coastal fog shape a quieter, outdoors-first rhythm. Nearby cultural pillars include the Getty Center, the Riviera Country Club, and the Santa Monica Farmers Market for a weekly ritual of local produce and prepared foods.
