dining room, family room and master bedroom—has access to
the brick patio," she points out. "It's also got the best views. That
whole side of the house is all about views." Even after dark, you
are kept company by the twinkling of lights in DTLA.
With its abundance of floor-to-ceiling glass and doors, plus
paved outdoor pathways linking living spaces—the home's contem-
porary roots offer a near-constant connection to fresh air and
uplifting views. "That whole movement in architecture has a lot
to do with the Southern California lifestyle," Clint remarks. Addi-
tionally, it's a post and beam structure, constructed with vertical
posts and horizontal beams, so indoor spaces are airy and minimal-
ist. Warmth and texture are then supplied by thoughtful, high-craft
details, such as vaulted ceilings with exposed wood ceilings. Or the
sculptural chandelier in the dining room, fashioned from bronze
and shimmering with glowing citrine crystals. Floors are a mix of
character-rich wood and oversized smooth brick that's been laid in
a chevron pattern. Though designed to accommodate a lifestyle of
quiet ease and to enable tasteful, elegant gatherings (all the way
down to the wide, sweeping driveway, nicely lit at night, and set
with earth-toned pavers), Clint points out that this inviting resi-
dence, "is not a showplace—rather, it feels like a home."
Originally completed in 1972, it's also a home that's been
significantly overhauled, starting in 2005 until today, with care-
ful attention paid to keeping its original design fingerprint intact.
"The homeowners have basically re-done everything," says Leslie,
"and everything has been done to perfection. This is probably the
most well-maintained house I've ever had the pleasure to sell."
