Agent Comments /
The Max Bubeck Residence by Allyn E. Morris c. 1956. A triumph of Mid-Century Modernism that embodies the best in Los Angeles architecture. Resting in the hills, this private H-shaped home is a complex combination of steel, glass and concrete block that creates a singular and creative environment from the moment you walk in. Clerestory windows frame the sky & mountains, while a circular fireplace surrounded by an atrium brings the outdoors inside. The floating ceiling supported by steel beams with walls of glass that disappear were revolutionary for the time. A private pool & spa is surrounded by hedges & lush landscape making it perfect for entertaining. This truly livable 3BR/3.5BA house also has a remodeled kitchen, an elevated den with views, a detached pool house, and an abundance of closets and storage. Outdoor patios, decks and gardens fill the large lot at every turn. "An excellent, fresh, and delightful piece of design." - Alan Hess, architecture historian.
