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?
William Pereira’s indelible mark on California architecture, include the Transamerica Pyramid in San Francisco, the LAX “Theme” Building, and the Geisel Library at UCSD in San Diego, and reflect his distinctive style characterized by bold forms and innovative use of materials. His grand civic gestures can be found here at home.
The William Pereira Residence in Los Angeles stands as a testament to mid-20th century architectural innovation and elegance. Designed by the renowned architect William Pereira himself in the late 1950s, this iconic home exemplifies modernist principles with its clean lines, expansive glass walls, and integration with its natural surroundings.
Located in Hancock Park on Wilshire Country Club, its striking geometric forms and thoughtful spatial arrangement reflect Pereira’s vision of harmonizing functionality with aesthetic grace, making it a landmark of architectural significance in Los Angeles.
