Mid-Century Buff and Hensman Hollywood Hills Post & Beam – 7256 Sunnydip

This iconic post and beam home epitomizes the signature Los Angeles mid-century style. The three bedroom Hollywood Hills home was originally designed and built in 1959 and later restored by the renowned architecture team Buff and Hensman complete with a 2002 addition to the home completed by Buff, Hensman, and Smith. For architecture buffs (pun intended) it doesn’t get much better than 7256 Sunnydip Trail.

Inside the floor plan is perfectly suited for today’s open layout lifestyle. The interiors are framed by walls of glass with awesome views. The living area features hardwood floors, wood beamed ceilings, and a truly fantastic gas fireplace.

The kitchen sits just off the living room and boasts eat-in seating for four or five.

The cook’s kitchen boasts all the essentials, such as all stainless steel appliances including a dishwasher, custom cabinetry, beautiful countertops, a magnificent hood range, and a skylight that will brighten and enrich all of your culinary experiences.

A central inner atrium floods light into every room.

The courtyard also acts to separate the master suite from the two guest bedrooms and the living areas.

The spacious master has a private patio and amazing, tranquil mountain views.

The large master bath has a double vanity and a big, beautiful rain shower tub.

The master also contains easy outdoor access and its own private outdoor shower.

And last but not least, the sun drenched pool sits just off the living room making it ideal for laid back and luxurious entertaining. This post and beam is surrounded by gardens and mountain views which makes guests feel enclosed and liberated all at once.
