Property Description
This first ever commissioned home by iconic architect A. Quincy Jones offers a once-in-a-lifetime chance to live in a piece of Hollywood architectural history. Located in the highly sought-after Hollywood Hills, this 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom property features 1400 square feet of living space. The property is a true expression of mid-century modernism and stands as a key example of early modernist design uniquely built to incorporate the landscape and create a treehouse-like feel. The home backs up to a protected wildlife sanctuary, offering sweeping greenbelt views from every room, providing a peaceful retreat from the bustling energy of Los Angeles.
A. Quincy Jones’ innovative use of steel, concrete, and glass in the design creates a sense of openness and lightness, while the minimalist lines and geometric shapes reflect the clean, modern aesthetic that was revolutionary at the time. As the first major work of Jones’ career, this home played a pivotal role in the evolution of mid-century modern architecture in Los Angeles, paving the way for future designs that would define the city’s architectural identity.
The open, multi-level floor plan was designed to integrate seamlessly with its natural surroundings, with large windows and sliding glass doors that create a flowing connection between indoor and outdoor spaces. Featuring vaulted ceilings in the upstairs bedrooms and office, a high ceiling in the living room, and elegant wood floors throughout. The home is equipped with dual-zone HVAC, two wood-burning fireplaces, Viking Range, and a large basement offering additional storage. The private outdoor area provides ample space for outdoor dining, grilling, or entertaining.
Located in the cultural hub of Laurel Canyon, famous for attracting musicians, artists, and counterculture figures since the 1960s and 70s. Iconic artists like Jim Morrison, Joni Mitchell, and Frank Zappa lived and collaborated there, shaping the sound of rock and folk music.
Located just minutes from the famous Canyon Country Store, Hollywood, West Hollywood, and Studio City, this home offers an exceptional opportunity to own a piece of architectural history that has helped to define Los Angeles identity.
