Condition: This iconic Richard Neutra home, built in 1960, has been 'sensitively restored' and meticulously maintained, integrating modern comforts while preserving its original architectural integrity. The kitchen features modern, high-end integrated appliances, well-preserved wood cabinetry, and pristine countertops and mosaic tile backsplash. Both bathrooms showcase period-appropriate yet virtually new mosaic tiling, modern fixtures, and appear to be in immaculate condition. Hardwood and other flooring throughout are polished and show no wear. The overall property condition, including the 'reimagined landscaping' and original but well-kept pool, reflects a recent, high-quality renovation that brings all components to current quality standards with no deferred maintenance.

About this home
The Sale House, 1960. Designed by celebrated architect Richard Neutra, the residence stands as the crowning jewel of Brentwood's famed Tigertail Road, perched at its highest peak. Nestled within the Crestwood Hills community, a modernist enclave of significant architecture, the home overlooks one of the finest views of the city and the Pacific Ocean. Set on just over an acre and surrounded by mature trees and reimagined landscaping by Ivette Soler Gardens, it offers complete privacy and embodies Neutra's belief that architecture should heighten one's relationship to nature. Sensitively restored, many of the defining details, built-in furniture, mosaic work by Elsa Sale, and even the original pool and diving board, have been preserved while integrating modern comforts with care. Equally suited for full time living or as a thoughtfully appointed pied-a-terre, this is a rare opportunity to own one of the few remaining Neutra's on the coveted Westside of Los Angeles.

Cons
MLS Listing Discrepancy: Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 3, other record bedroom count = 2.
Limited Interior Square Footage: At 1632 sqft for 3 beds/2 baths, the interior living space is relatively modest for a luxury property on an acre lot in this price range, which may not meet the expectations of all high-end buyers.
Premium Price Point: The $5.295 million list price positions this property at a very high-end market segment, naturally narrowing the pool of potential buyers.
Niche Architectural Appeal: While a significant strength for enthusiasts, Richard Neutra's specific modernist aesthetic may not appeal to all luxury buyers, potentially limiting market breadth compared to more universally preferred styles.
