Description

The Sale House, 1960. Richard Neutra, Architect. Brentwood's exclusive Tigertail Road winds its way up the mountain. At the tip of Tigertail is the Sale House. Here, the profound assets of the land are magnified by Neutra's careful siting and glass house program. Originally designed for an artist and her husband, Neutra added skylights and lighting to enhance the owner's art work. 65 years after its completion, the residence is once again home to an art and furniture collection vividly expressing its owner's vision. A recent restoration of the residence and pool has maintained Neutra's plan, built-in furniture, cabinetry, bathroom tile, and the original owner's mosaics. New landscaping was designed by Ivette Soler Gardens. The surrounding hillside greenbelt affords miles of hiking and the ability to live privately within nature, while savoring a bird's eye view of the city and coastline below. Residence incorporates: Open plan living, dining and den areas, sensitively updated kitchen, three bedrooms, two baths, original swimming pool and diving board, gardens, and 2 car carport. The original accordion door between bedrooms 2 and 3 may be restored to its original configuration.
