ABOUT THIS HOME

OFFERS DUE 6/4 BY NOON: The Crown Jewel of Laurel Canyon. Set privately behind high walls on a lush and magical 1/4 acre flat lot and nestled on the most prestigious stretch of Wonderland Park Avenue, a street revered for its architectural pedigree and connection to mid-century modernist legends like Garrett Eckbo and Pierre Koenig, no detail has been spared in the home's masterful restoration, which draws clear influence from the iconic ethos of Joseph Eichler. This 1955 post-and-beam mid century jewel box is the epitome of form and feeling. Every room is immersed in nature and light, captured through walls of glass that frame the verdant landscape. A true one-of-a-kind, 3bed 3bath glass house compound of mid-century architecture at its most soulful and refined. The open living bathed in natural light features a fireplace, custom built-ins with Italian mohair, Waterworks finishes, bespoke millwork, and Japanese brick grounding the home with organic warmth, while custom 8ft white oak doors with tailored hardware add a sense of sculptural detail and craftsmanship throughout. Appliances are by Bertazzoni, bathrooms showcase Agape Italian sinks, Japanese ceramic tile, hand blown glass windows, and vintage Italian Murano glass light fixtures. Even the door knobs, crafted in 1955 by Luigi Caccia Dominioni, are a nod to the home's layered and tactile design. Consisting of two mesmerizing structures, the guest house has been tailored as the third bedroom/office and bath, thoughtfully designed for use as a screening room, creative studio, or tranquil guest retreat. The grounds unfold like a private park where the front yard is a magical wonderland of grasses and palms while the backyard is wrapped in travertine flagstone anchored by an emerald pool under a canopy of incredible mature trees, echoing the magic of Big Sur living. A whole house water filtration system ensures modern comfort without compromising on wellness. All vintage furniture has been curated to complement the architecture and is available for sale, offering buyers a fully realized turn-key experience.
