Property Description
First offering since 1999: The Richard Wolford House, 1949-1950. James De Long, Architect and Taliesin Fellow. Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument #614. The Wolford House is as near a pure expression of Frank Lloyd Wright's "Usonian" style as one could hope to find in Southern California. Inspired by Wright's Millard House in Pasadena near his family home, De Long apprenticed with Wright at Taliesin between 1946-1947, where he absorbed the Usonian principles that would define his early work. Sited on Mount Washington's architecturally blessed Sea View Lane, the Wolford House was designed almost simultaneously with the Scholfield House which appeared next door in 1950. The warm, original palette remains virtually intact, with hues of burnt reddish-orange, masonry fireplace in the living room, and redwood throughout. The mitered edge of the living room windows expand outward to the Southwest facing light and the long views beyond Mount Washington. The freestanding garage was recently converted to a ADU/guesthouse and adds 442 square feet of meticulously designed living space to the main house. The original stools designed for the house by James De Long are being offered as part of the sale.
