Designed by Chalfont head in 1950, this residence was published in Better Homes and Gardens in March of 1953. At the end of a private road, a long gravel drive and ample motor court deliver you to a perch above the charming hamlet of Fillmore. Well sited for maximum privacy and oriented west, the property captures majestic unobstructed views of mountain ranges and the Heritage Valley. A rare and refined early example of California Modernism retains the architect's vision, with Head designing a flowing, open plan for living spaces and a separate bedroom wing with abundant glass walls under broad eaves opening to a flat lawn, pool, and generous terraces for outdoor dining and poolside lounging. The property features extensive, well-preserved custom millwork, built-ins, the original bathroom tile, and fixtures throughout. The main house consists of a primary ensuite and a guest bedroom and bath. A later separate permitted guest house lies adjacent to the pool, featuring a bedroom, full bath, and dressing room and is reached via a covered breezeway. Additional artist studio/office is connected to the attached carport.

This property is listed for $1,195,000 with George Mimnaugh at Compass. For more details, please visit: www.compass.com/lis...
