Property Description

One of the few remaining 1964 Mid-Century Modern "platform houses" originally designed by architects Richard Kearney and John Pugsley is now available for lease. Located within the Montecito Drive Residential Historic District, this historic residence retains its dramatic cantilevered design, modular layout, and prefabricated materials, all carefully adapted to the steep canyon terrain on which it sits. The home offers two bedrooms arranged to provide privacy and flexibility. The primary suite features its own en-suite half-bathroom, while the spacious main bath between the two bedrooms includes a shower and a separate soaking tub. The second bedroom is currently configured as an office and yoga studio. The open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area is filled with natural light, with sliding glass doors on three sides around an open patio, creating a seamless connection to the outdoors and framing beautiful canyon views. The well-appointed kitchen features a long freestanding island that also functions as a breakfast bar. A laundry room is conveniently located adjacent to the kitchen. At the entrance, an additional bonus room provides an ideal space for a music studio, office, library, or creative workspace. Set on an expansive 7,600 sqft lot, the property includes a small, private, enclosed front yard and a large outdoor deck beneath the house, complete with a barbecue area and a heat lamp, perfect for entertaining year-round. Mature trees and a gently sloping downslope yard planted with orange and lemon trees create a peaceful, natural setting. Despite its tranquil canyon location, the home is just minutes from the shops, restaurants, cafes, and entertainment of Highland Park, as well as nearby Debs Park and Flat Top, offering excellent hiking and outdoor recreation.
