From the Agent: "Designed by celebrated architect Richard Neutra, the Sale House is perched at the highest peak of Brentwood’s famed Tigertail Road. Nestled within the Crestwood Hills community, a modernist enclave of significant architecture, the home overlooks views of the city and the Pacific Ocean. Surrounded by mature trees and reimagined landscaping by Ivette Soler Gardens, it offers complete privacy and embodies Neutra’s belief that architecture should heighten one’s relationship to nature. The home has been sensitively restored, and many of the defining details, built-in furniture, mosaic work by Elsa Sale, and even the original pool and diving board, have been preserved while carefully integrating modern comforts."
Robert and Elsa Sale commissioned Richard Neutra to design their Crestwood Hills home, which was completed in 1960.

Robert was an engineer, and Elsa was an artist—her mosaic work is still visible in the house today.
