A rare opportunity to own a significant work of midcentury modern architecture by A. Quincy Jones FAIA, one of just three “Sun Villa” residences built in Los Angeles. Completed circa 1950, the updated home showcases Jones’s signature post-and-beam design, where volume, light, and material harmonize across an expansive indoor-outdoor layout. Clerestory windows and glass sliders invite sunlight into airy living spaces anchored by concrete and cork floors; the beautifully designed kitchen features custom wood paneling and a pro-grade Bertazzoni range. Two bedrooms, two luxurious baths, and a dedicated office provide flexibility. Ensconced in privacy and calm, the home opens to a serene outdoor setting with a sparkling pool and sunny patio for dining alfresco. The Mills Act delivers significant property tax savings; amenities include central AC, laundry and covered carport with EV charger. All just blocks from the shopping, dining, and conveniences along Brand Boulevard.
