Lush park-like landscaping engulfs this timelessly modernist home. Located on one of Los Angeles' most private streets, this 1961, John Lautner designed home offers a peaceful refuge from the city located mere minutes away. The Wolff Residence, as Lautner often stated, was his finest homage to his mentor Frank Lloyd Wright.  Expressive engineering and design seamlessly integrate the residence into it's natural environment.Where nature and architecture converge into the ultimate expression of enduring innovation. Lautner worked with the natural terrain and integrated the steep hillside directly into the home, blurring the distinction between indoors and outdoors.A large Eucalyptus tree grows inside as seen through the dramatic floor to ceiling glass panes in the formal living room. An angular stone fireplace punctuates one end and gleaming hardwood floors flow throughout.  The main residence and adjoining guest house share a "floating" copper-lined roof and allow the compound exceptional flexibility for personal, creative and professional endeavors. The main house includes three bedrooms each room capturing stunning tree top and city views.  The property also includes a one-bedroom guesthouse.  Exceptional use of wood, stone, and glass are found throughout. This modernist treehouse is a CA Monument and enjoys Mills Act tax benefits.Located high above Los Angeles, dramatic city and ocean views are realized from the serene pool and multiple outdoor patio areas.  Among the most important homes of architectural provenance in Los Angeles, this one should not be missed!For more information or to schedule a showing please email me or call me at 310.913.7651Listing courtesy of Simon Salloom, Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage
