"The Calvin House", designed by F.A.I.A. Architects A. Quincy Jones and Frederick E. Emmons, built in 1961. An extraordinary opportunity to own one of four custom homes designed by the notable architects in the Royal Homes subdivision of Tarzana. This iconic property embodies Mid Century charm, yet seamlessly blends modern design and sustainability. Upon entering the courtyard, you are greeted with a secret garden, lush with mature Japanese Maples, Blue Palo Verdes and Magnolia trees. The front door is flanked by a green lush Atrium with floor to ceiling windows, a signature of Jones design. Upon entry, the Family Room cascades with natural light and echos into the loft above. The adjacent main Living Room showcases the timeless A-Frame design and fluidity between indoor and outdoor living. An expansive room encased with a glass facade, clerestory windows, dual sliding doors, tongue and groove ceiling, exposed joists, oak wood floors, and a modern fireplace as the center hallmark. Jones expressed the kitchen is the heart of the home, which is thoughtfully located in the center of the home. A reimagined cooks kitchen with Carrera marble counters, stainless Viking and Sub Zero appliances, and adjacent breakfast nook. The rear of the home includes an oversized primary bedroom, adorned with a vaulted tongue and groove ceiling, large ensuite bathroom, and a bonus room perfect for a nursery or office. Two additional bedrooms and bathrooms downstairs. Upstairs includes two large bedrooms with a shared bathroom. Step into the enchanted backyard, written from a storybook. A sparkling blue pool surrounded by willowing trees, and a waterfall flowing into the spa perched above. Built-in barbeque and wet sink, perfect for entertaining. The soothing sounds and tranquil oasis truly makes you feel like time slows down here. Additional noteworthy features include over 24 solar panels, completely powering the home. Close proximity to Ventura blvd, 101fwy, Westfield shopping and more.
