From the Agent: "Presenting Parkland House, a beacon of midcentury innovation crafted by acclaimed West Coast builder Bob Lewis. Gracing an exceptionally grand parcel at the heart of prestigious Upper Lonsdale, it fluidly marries local modernism with the pioneering open-plan ethos of Eichler’s California-modern residences. The home sits gracefully upon a parklike site, a vision of serenity conceived by its original owner, Judge Pool. A beautifully simple and well-proportioned exterior complements an interior articulated by a rhythmic post-and-beam structure, abundant natural light, and a sequence of panoramic views to the nearby gardens. As the current residence for filmmakers whose creative energies helped shaped the worlds of Tron and X-Men, Parkland House now seeks to inspire its next custodian."
The wood-clad home has a flat roof and a facade dotted with large windows. The property’s soaring trees and lush landscaping create a park-like setting.
