The historic Los Angeles-area home blends indoor and outdoor living seamlessly.
But the home’s interior is just as stunning. The two-story, five-bed, three-bath house features open living spaces, a hexagonal dining room and a floor-to-ceiling fireplace within its 3,300 square feet. Accents throughout—such as the garage and fireplace grates, French door grills and closets—mimic the surrounding yucca plants, a nod to Wright’s practice of integrating nature and design, a practice he inherited from his father.
Most of the house is made of concrete, wood and glass, allowing the space to feel light-filled and airy, especially the double-height living room. Purple- and pink-tiled bathrooms lend some color to the otherwise neutral, earth-tone home.Situated on 1.5 acres of land across four adjacent lots, the house has plenty of outdoor space to enjoy as well.
Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the Derby House previously sold for $2.3 million in 2016 to Jeffrey Sanfilippo, the CEO of John B. Sanfilippo & Son, a nut distributor. This time, it’s listed as furnished, so don’t worry about finding furniture to match the grandeur of the home itself.One of the houses’ bedrooms looks out onto the terrace. Open House Foto
