3506 Beethoven St, Los Angeles, CA 90066

This 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath home has a lot of natural light and great outdoor space. The Mar Vista Tract was designed by Gregory Ain. Ain was a significant "second generation" modernist architect who worked with the first generation of California Modern masters. Ain believed in bringing good design to the masses. The Mar Vista Tract development was planned in 1947 for a hundred houses on a 60-acre site. The first stage was 52 houses, which turned out to be the final number of homes. By rotating the one-floor plan in different directions, Ain was able to create a sense of variation between the houses. The main selling points were the convertible features, the ultra-modern design, and colors. The exteriors were rich in color, and the interior of each house had a color scheme matching its exterior color. In 2003, the Mar Vista Tract became the first Post-World War II Modern historic district in the City of Los Angeles, officially known as a Historic Preservation Overlay Zone ("HPOZ"). This home recently restored to its former glory. Renter responsible for utilities. If possible, please text me to coordinate house tour
