This extraordinary mid-century modern post & beam home is tucked away at the end of a cul-de-sac in the hills of Studio City. The three bedroom treehouse-esque structure is nestled among four other mid-century homes that were part of a USC Case Study project built by architecture firm Chapman and McCorkell in the mid-1950s.


The custom remodeled hilltop masterpiece has incredible jetliner views from nearly every vantage point.

Enter to find wall-to-wall windows with endless views and brilliant natural light, a truly open concept living and dining room with built-in storage, soaring ceilings with wood beams, recessed lighting, and wide-plank oak hardwood floors.

The sleek chef’s kitchen has a fantastic oversized center island with eat-in bar seating, stainless steel appliances including a Miele gas range, open shelving, and custom cabinetry for storage.

In addition to the living room, there is also a great family den with outdoor access. Custom built-ins including a glassed-encased record player, beamed ceilings, and lots of bookshelves for the perfect home library.

The peaceful primary bedroom has clerestory windows that provide wonderful natural light, but at the same time plenty of privacy.

The primary’s very own mid-century fireplace is absolutely gorgeous.

The primary bath has been gloriously updated and is a master class in use of design and materials.

The second bedroom has easy access to the sky high deck via a pair of sliders.

The third bedroom is primed as a children’s room, but could easily be transformed to a great work from home office or guest quarters.

Both of the bathrooms have been updated while maintaining their mid-century charm, and each bathroom has skylights that provide lush natural light.

The beautifully landscaped deck includes treetop and city views, a pergola that provides ample shade, multiple areas for al freso dining.

You will love gathering around the fire pit and enjoying an evening with friends and family.

There is parking for four cars, plus new solar panels making this mid-century marvel eco-friendly. It’s also located in the prized, award-winning Carpenter Community Charter School district, one of LA’s very best.

And the home truly comes alive at sunset when the light transforms to dappled light through the trees and paints the skies above the twinkling city lights absolutely electric.
