Pasadena Thomas and Barbara Wirick House by Calvin Straub

1617 PLEASANT WAY, PASADENA | $2,980,000 | 3 BD | 2 BA

Poppy Peak in Pasadena is one neighborhood in the greater Los Angeles region that holds its own when it comes to architecture. The Thomas and Barbara Wirick House by Calvin Straub circa 1958 is a prime example of this excellence. This post and beam home was finished just as Calvin would be joining the firm of Buff and Hensman that year to combine talents. Buff, Straub, and Hensman would be architecture’s version of a super group. And, the hits kept coming.

HOLLYWOOD HILLS MID-CENTURY MODERN ZEN SANCTUARY BY JEREMY RENNER

Hollywood Hills Mid-century Modern Zen Sanctuary by Jeremy Renner

2630 HARLESDEN CT, HOLLYWOOD HILLS | $12,995,000 | 6 BD | 9 BA

When we first saw this property back in 2012 it had been in the same family since it was built back in 1967. The home was designed by architect Richard Stoddard, a graduate of the USC school of architecture, for a Los Angeles Commissioner, philanthropist and developer, Mike Hollander. When it came on the market, there were groovy original features including a central vacuuming system. Just plug in the portable vacuum hose into the wall receptacle in each room. Who’s got time to roll a vacuum from room to room? The home was a custom Japanese inspired mid century modern home with a koi pond and lily pads. This luxury home was built for a family with means.

HANCOCK PARK WILLIAM PEREIRA ARCHITECTURAL HOME

Hancock Park William Pereira Architectural Home

135 N ROSSMORE AVE, HANCOCK PARK | $5,495,000 | 4 BD | 5 BA

William Pereira Architectural Home is a headline we rarely see. The last single family residence I can remember designed by the luminary was the Chatsworth residence of Dora Hutchinson built in 1951 (later owned by Frank Sinatra). Pereira was a pillar in the commercial world of mid century architecture. So, to see the home he designed for himself at 135 N Rossmore in Hancock Park to hit the market, we were thrilled. We understand this house is going to need lots of love to either bring it back or move it forward to a restoration it deserves. But it sure has some lines doesn’t it?
