Charles DuBois, Architect :: Mid-Century Modern, 1962. Close to award-winning charter schools, ten minutes to Bristol Farms, and centrally located near Calabasas, Hidden Hills and Topanga Canyon for easy beach access, this pleasant enclave is a modern enthusiast’s dream. Built in the early sixties, the visionary neighborhood includes dozens of homes by this well-known architect, perhaps most famous for his “Swiss Miss” Alexander homes in Palm Springs. The open floor plan is oriented to the swimming pool, and floor-to-ceiling glass doors dissolve the boundary to the outdoors. Public rooms cluster around a double fireplace, with stacked bond masonry accentuating the height of the tall tongue-and-groove ceilings. Exposed wood post and beam construction, cork floors, vintage light fixtures, and antique hardware define the period aesthetic, while stainless steel appliances, an updated kitchen, and newer bathroom finishes make the home more contemporary. Well-preserved yet ahead of its time.
