Urban Oasis: John Lautner-Inspired Canyon Retreat in L.A. Is Available for $4.9M

This 1975 design, inspired by midcentury modern architect John Lautner, is flawless. And the home’s workmanship and materials, which include premium wood, glass, and stone, are impeccable.

The list price for this slice of paradise is $4,995,000; but if you’d rather try before you buy, you can lease the three-bedroom, 3.5-bath, 3,000 square-foot home for $17,500 a month.

And the location, nestled in its own private Bel Air canyon off Beverly Glen, is surprisingly convenient.

The home last sold in 2021 for $3,175,000.

Its extensive glass walls, skylights, and cantilevered bedroom wings set it apart from all others.

“This home has this charming feel to it, with incredible energy,” says Daniel Milstein, who is listing the property with  Aaron Kirman, both of AKG | Christie’s International Real Estate. “If you want to live in a private nature oasis, yet close to the sights and sounds, this is it. The incredible architecture is breathtaking and works perfectly in this unique, abundant space.”

The impressive, wood-clad entry leads to an airy, two-story great room, illuminated by skylights and crowned by the second-floor gallery.

The lovely dining area is adjacent to an upgraded chef’s kitchen, where more windows flood the space with natural light.

Up the winding, modern staircase, there’s a glittering master suite with spa amenities. Further up, there is a third-floor landing with a guest suite and private deck.

Multiple decks, balconies, dining areas, and terraces beautifully mesh together this hillside home with its grassy yard and outdoor spaces.

And while many of its virtues are apparent to the naked eye, the house has a whole slate of hidden, high-tech features—  a smart home system, automated lighting, a built-in sound system, and automatic blinds, which are essential in a home with this many windows.
