Hollywood Hills The Jack Lucas Residence AKA ‘Pyramid Bungalow’ by Eric Black

7400 PYRAMID PLACE, HOLLYWOOD HILLS | $3,297,000 | 2 Bd | 2 BA

It’s not every day we encounter an early example of California Modernism so exquisitely preserved and thoughtfully reimagined. The Jack Lucas Residence (1947), designed by architect Eric Black, is a timeless architectural statement. With floor-to-ceiling glass, corner ribbon windows, rich mahogany walls, and original cork flooring, its enduring appeal is undeniable. Meticulously restored and enhanced by modernist specialist Tony Unruh, AIA, the home now features a sculptural spa deck reminiscent of a ship’s bow, offering equally striking views. Custom Ipe loungers and flourishing fruit gardens envelop the property in natural elegance. Adjacent to a vineyard and just steps from Runyon Canyon, the residence also boasts an impressive editorial pedigree, having graced the pages of Vogue and served as a backdrop for Louis Vuitton and Prada. A home with mid-century soul and contemporary vitality.?
