8707 Saint Ives Dr, Los Angeles, CA 90069

Live in the most desirable neighborhood in Los Angeles. You will love calling home in this modern and timeless residence. The "Hillside House" was designed in 1962 by the West Coast architect Carl Maston. The residence is located on St. Ives Drive at Sunset Plaza Drive in the uber-sexy and famous Sunset Plaza neighborhood with spectacular views overlooking Downtown LA. Conceptually, this home is a piece of art and is also listed as a Los Angeles historical landmark. The three level house is set into a 45-degree angle hill, preserving the natural hillside setting while the house serves as its own retaining wall. A windowless wall on the lower level serves as a base for the glass-walled top floor; the front door, located at the rear of the parking area leads to a floating concrete stairway to the upstairs living quarters. The second floor bedroom has beautiful polished concrete floors with a custom wood built-in queen sized bed. The bathroom has radiant heated flooring. The views are simply spectacular of the Hollywood Hills laying in bed! This gem is a once in a lifetime opportunity to live in a "Case Study Era" home that has been published and photographed by Julius Shulman. Considered "a cultural hub known for its celebrities," The Hollywood Hills has a long tradition of be the "IT" place to live. Whether you're taking a stroll at one of the shops on Sunset Plaza or grabbing a coffee at local cafe, dinners at Chateau Marmont, Tower Bar, The Polo Lounge or just working out at the local West Hollywood Equinox Gym, this area has every luxury you need yet manages to be relaxed, geographically convenient and welcoming. This residence was published in Modernism Rediscovered for case study era homes. It was also featured in "Defining Photographs of Architecture & Design", presented by the Julius Shulman Institute at Woodbury University School of Architecture, the panel discussion asks significant questions that explore the photographer/architect relationship and the photographer/media relationship past, present and future. The home has been featured in numerous print ads and a music video. *$12,500 per month *tours by appointment only-please call or email to schedule an appointment.
