They had a vision with their perfect location.
Plans were drawn, and concrete was poured.
The bones to their home went up nail by nail, and board by board.
Their dreams turned into a reality, a house was created that gave them a lifetime of beautiful memories.
The Leonhardts designed and built this custom mid-century modern house with love. Placed on the top of Panorama Heights with sunset views for days, this husband and wife created a life by design and a love that lasted their lifetime. The Leonhardt Residence was built in 1962, with all of the original and custom mid-century modern elements that keep true to the architectural design. The house offers a tranquil vibe with walls of glass that illuminate the view and nature, natural tongue and groove wood ceiling, post and beam, block walls and fireplace, Philippine Dao wood walls, an atrium with a built-in fountain, and retro bathrooms. The house has been meticulously maintained, and over the last few years updates have been made: radiant heat boiler, termite/wood replacement, patio cover, electrical, faucets, balcony over the garage, and main sewer line sleeved.
Just imagine what life would be like in a glass house overlooking Orange County with views to Catalina, the best fireworks shows, surreal sunsets, and the peacefulness of being on the top of the hill. Removed from the rat race, but minutes away from everything you desire. Whether you're entertaining your favorite people, or just spending the evenings relaxing — this is living.
Bonus! There is a large extra room with a bar and balcony over the garage — imagine the possibilities! Are you ready to live your life by design in this custom architectural home?
