Nestled in the San Gabriel foothills, this Usonian-inspired home showcases Lloyd Wright's geometric explorations of the time and is characterized by a harmonious blend of horizontal lines, ribbed concrete walls, expansive glass panels, and striking rooflines. Surrounded by a tranquil landscape, the property exudes a sense of serenity with native plants, meandering pathways, mature trees, and a delightful water garden that attracts birds and dragonflies. The diagonally scored concrete patio and original built-in barbecue provide an ideal setting for al fresco entertaining. Stroll through the private, parklike yard that offers ample room for a pool.Throughout the home, large windows frame picturesque views and fill the rooms with natural light, seamlessly blending indoors and out. The open floor plan, with its unique shapes and oblique angles, is thoughtfully arranged into three distinct zones: the living space, kitchen-dining area, and the bedroom wing. Step into the hexagonal living room where you will be captivated by the dramatic asymmetric fireplace and walls of glass overlooking the lush garden. The kitchen is a culinary dream featuring black walnut cabinetry, stainless steel countertops, a center island and a 6-burner Viking Range.

Moreover, it benefits from Mills Act status, offering significant tax savings.
