Forget the Pacific. This Sleek $14.4 Million L.A. Home Offers Picturesque Views of the Getty Museum.
Over on the westside of Los Angeles, amid a secluded cul-de-sac in a prime pocket of the Brentwood neighborhood, an impressive home from the luxury portfolio of Abramson Architects has just reappeared on the market with a newly reduced $14.4 million price tag, a substantial $1.6 million less than the initial ask this past spring. The listing is shared by Elizabeth Puro of Douglas Elliman and Lauren Ravitz of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Properties.
Boasting an eye-catching façade made up of three distinct tiers clad in board-formed concrete at the bottom, aluminum-louvred glass in the middle, and white stucco up top, the modern showpiece was crafted for a photographer/interior designer client in 2019 by the L.A.-based firm, which is widely known for its “earnest desire to elevate the human soul, to facilitate connection, and to improve the lives of the people they serve.”

Aptly known as the Getty View Residence—for its full-on views of the L.A. landmark—the L-shaped spread offers four bedrooms and six baths in a little more than 6,500 square feet of sun-drenched living space that is accessible via steps that lead across a reflecting pool before emptying out at the large pivoting front door.
Once inside, a striking wood and terrazzo staircase ascends to an expansive living room that sports a melaleuca tree encased within a glass atrium. Retractable glass doors spill out to a covered terrace. Opposite the floor-to-ceiling fireplace is a dining room featuring a wine display and a floating credenza, while the polished kitchen is outfitted with a wall of glass-front storage, an eat-in island, and top-tier appliances.
Elsewhere on the main level is an office, a family room, and a bath-equipped gym that can easily double as a guest room. Three additional bedrooms can be found upstairs, including a plush primary suite that comes complete with light oak floors, a marble fireplace, a cantilevered reading nook, a custom closet, and a spa-like bath flaunting dual vanities, an oval soaking tub, and a separate shower.
Not to be left out are the picturesque grounds, which host award-winning spaces laced with meandering pathways leading to gardens and seating areas displaying sculptures, along with a firepit, a barbecue and bar setup, and a sparking pool and spa. Rounding it all out is a handy elevator, a climate-controlled wine room, and an oversized three-car garage notched into the hillside.
“The work of Abramson Architects stands out for its seamless blending of art and architecture, says Puro. “Their fine design, meticulous execution, and attention to detail create a perfect harmony with the natural surroundings, turning the house into a living, breathing masterpiece.”
