Artist Marlee Brown writes, “Color is my passion. It is my first reaction to the arena and my first responsibility to my artwork.” This declare is subsidized up reasonably convincingly by means of the artist’s well-known landscapes of Michigan’s Mackinac Island, and by way of the vivid interiors of the midcentury modern house in Southern California that she’s simply put available on the market.
Though somebody would be forgiven for guessing the home’s location to be Palm Springs, it’s in truth found in South L.A.’s midcentury enclave of Baldwin Hills Estates. Built in 1955, the single-story post and beam was designed via Harold B. Zook, who began his profession operating in the Palms Springs company of Albert Frey and John Porter Clark, then went on to determine his personal practice, based in Pasadena, in 1948.
Resting on a 9,581-square-foot hilltop lot, the home enjoys panoramic city and mountain vistas. The color wheel starts spinning at its primary access, which is concealed at the back of a inexperienced breeze-block wall. On the opposite side of the carved-wood entrance door awaits a sunny yellow lounge covered on one finish with partitions of glass and on one aspect with ribbed-wood paneling. Each of the 2,700-square-foot house’s bedrooms and baths apply their very own particular person colour tales, which make liberal use of purple, crimson, lilac, and orange palettes, consistent with Dirt.
Two spaces that provide a palate (or palette) cleanser are the kitchen, which has been updated with stainless home equipment and coated with custom cabinetry in a gentle wood tone, and an all-white portray studio area. Other highlights include concrete floors, built-ins, and a stacked-stone fireside.
Online advertising and marketing fabrics note that the home’s kidney-shaped pool has been restored, and new air con and a mountain climbing wall were put in.
Last sold for $2.35 million, the colorful property is on the market with an asking price of $2.85 million. Kevin and Stefani Stolper of The Beverly Hills Estates dangle the checklist.
