Starchitect Frank Gehry is the man behind the iconic Walt Disney concert hall, new towers on Bunker Hill, a master plan for the LA River and this modernist home.
3 bd / 3.5 ba
$4,899,000
Built in1936 Gehry’s St. Ives Residence is located down a long gated drive, on a rare street-to-street lot in the swanky bird streets, just above the Sunset Strip.
A two-year, multi-million dollar renovation, left three sides of the exterior wrapped in a stucco enclosure.
Inside the architecture boasts extraordinary light and scale throughout. Spanning multiple levels the 3,861 square feet offers a full-floor master suite along with 2 other bedrooms, a chef’s kitchen with adjacent dining terraces, wall-to-wall picture windows, and enviable downtown-to-ocean views.
There’s also a tempting pool and surrounding terraces that complete this modern retreat.
The current owners are Margaret Maldonado, founder of the Los Angeles based fashion label L’Agence and the the woman who put J.Lo in that unforgettable Versace dress, and her husband Mikko Koskinen. Public records show they purchased the home for $2,395,000 in 2005.
The home most recently hit the market in February, 2016 with an asking price of $6,395,000. After a near-year long stint the asking price is now $4,899,000. (It’s also available for lease.)
