$2,495,000

The Roxy Roth House, 1946. R.M. Schindler, Architect. Commissioned by a screenwriter and actor, the Roxy Roth House has been cared for by only four owners across nearly eight decades, all creatives themselves.

Sited above the street at the end of a cul-de-sac, the residence offers both seclusion and sweeping, cinematic views across the San Fernando Valley. An understated entry leads to a generous first-floor bedroom before ascending into the main living level, where light pours in from three directions by day, and creative interior lighting brings sculptural warmth by night. Space unfolds gently, with shifting planes of light dissolving the boundary between indoors and out. The main floors living and dining area centers on a massive picture window framing the valley panorama. The room is flanked by Schindlers original built-ins, functional alcoves and hidden storage. The primary suite includes more whimsical touches - a built-in reading light and a folding screen that when opened allows a window into the living room and beyond to the unique valley view. Throughout, Schindlers custom details remain intact, anchoring the home firmly in its architectural lineage. Another defining feature is the approximately 400 sq. ft. writers studio/office, once the carport and later transformed by architect Barbara Bestor.

California Architect Designed Properties


	William Stephenson The Royal Crest Estates 16045 Royal Mount Dr, Encino, CA $2,895,000 Architect William R. Stephenson --1964. There is a particular kind of house that resists the markets churn -- one that has never been flipped, never been staged for someone elses taste, never been touched without genuine consideration. This is one of those houses. Designed by William Stephenson -- who came up through Frank Lloyd Wrights Taliesin fellowship before building a distinguished independent practice in Los Angeles -- the residence sits within Encinos Royal Oaks, on a quiet cul-de-sac in the hills, where it has belonged to a single family since the year it was completed. Stephensons portfolio included the Pacific Palisades home commissioned by Ronald and Nancy Reagan, work that speaks to both his standing and his sensibility: architecture that serves life without announcing itself at every turn. The house announces its intentions from the moment you step inside. The entryway is anchored in warm wood paneling -- walnut-toned, rich without being heavy -- that sets a tone carried throughout the home in built-in cabinetry and millwork that could only have been designed and installed in the early 1960s, when craftsmen still built things to last generations. There is a cohesion to these elements that no renovation could replicate. They werent selected from a catalog. They were made for this house. The hall offers one of the homes more quietly charming originals: a cedar-lined closet, fragrant and intact, built expressly for the lady of the house. It is the sort of detail that speaks volumes about how this home was lived in -- deliberately, graciously, and with a certain style that belongs to another era entirely. Like so much here, it has never been touched because it never needed to be. That same era gave the home its bar -- an original wet bar, intact and fully functional, of the kind that once defined a certain mode of California living and has since become nearly impossible to find in original condition. It is, in the truest sense, irreplaceable.
