Glendale Landmark the Derby House, Lloyd Wright, 1926 | Mills Act Designated, National Landmark

The Derby House

2535 EAST CHEVY CHASE DRIVE, GLENDALE | $2,495,000 | 5 Bed | 2 Baths  

A chance to restore one of L.A.’s most iconic pieces of architecture. Set on a unique expanse of land in Glendale’s historic Chevy Chase Canyon, the Derby House offers not just architectural significance, but a deeply atmospheric landscape. The property unfolds across gently undulating terrain – dotted with quiet clearings and shaded corners. Built in 1926 and recently designated under the Mills Act, the home is among the earliest examples of concrete textile block construction – an architectural system later championed by Wright’s father, Frank Lloyd Wright. Each hand-cast block was designed to shape not just the structure but the experience of time – casting shadows that shift with the day and giving a quiet rhythm to the light.

Glendale Rudolph Schindler’s Rodriguez House

1845 NIODRARA DR, GLENDALE | $3,095,000 | 4 BD | 4 BA

We’ve seen plenty of Rudolph M Schindler residences that are a bit reserved in their curb appeal. However, the 1941 post and beam Rodriguez House can’t wait to show off its architectural grandeur. The front facing wood trusses jutting out and supporting the roof are integral to the visual design of the house and set the tone for touring the rest of the home. Just off an idyllic drive in Glendale, the property is blanketed in gorgeous mature landscaping that nestles the home quite well.
