Description
The Lechner House R.M. Schindler, 1949 Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument #1024 A true architectural treasure and a masterwork of Mid-Century Modern design, The Lechner House stands as one of Rudolph M. Schindler's most celebrated residential works. Hidden behind private gates, this 1949 estate unfolds across lush, park-like groundsa serene setting that feels both expansive and deeply private. Designated Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument #1024, the home reflects Schindler's genius use of organic materials, spatial rhythm, and seamless connection to the landscape. Inspired by Native American cave dwellings, walls of glass allow the interiors to open dramatically to the outdoors, framing wide, cinematic views of nature, flooding each room with natural light. After a meticulous, multi-year restoration by Pamela Shamshiri, Design Principal of Studio Shamshiri, the residence was thoughtfully revived to honor Schindler's original vision while introducing quiet, modern refinements for contemporary living. The current owners continued this legacy with a complete exterior restoration by famed architecture studio Escher GuneWardena, new landscaping by Terremoto Landscape, and the revival of the original pool creating an atmosphere that feels timeless, soulful, and alive.Spanning approximately 4,000 square feet over two-stories, the home offers four bedrooms and three-and-a-half baths on an oversized lot making it one of Schindler's more spacious residential works. Every detail encourages an elevated yet effortless way of life, defined by natural materials, open sightlines, and a deep sense of tranquility. Fully restored to its intended purpose, The Lechner House embodies pedigree, peace, and proportional living piece of Los Angeles architectural history. Every surface tells a story of craftsmanship and care; every view draws you back to nature. Home is on Mills Act.
